About
Until 2014 the name was "Fritz Ale". Due to trademark issues with ''Fritz-Kola'' the owner, Fritz Wülfing, was forced to change the name of the brewery. Formerly client brewed at Braustelle, Cologne and Siegburger Abteibrauerei, Siegburg.

Bottled. Goldeny amber colour with a small off-white head, which leaves mild lace. Aroma is fruity, some grapefruits, mild nectar and burnt sugary (almost gluelike) sweetness. Flavour is grapefruits, some nectar, mild rubbery and gluelike tones. Long floral and fruity aftertaste. Somehow there's a gluelike thing going on in everything except the aftertaste.
