Can at home. Aroma is wheat, bit citrussy, banana, yeast, hint of hops. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet. Body is about medium. Mediocre Weizen, there’s an artificial/chemical element to it. Drinkable though.

Can at home. Aroma is sweet grainy malt, notes of apple, touch of alcohol. Flavour is malty sweetness with some bitterness in the finish. Not as boozy as some of the other horrible Strong Lagers I’ve tried. Body is medium. Pretty lousy beer but I’ve had worse.

[as Fahnen Bräu] Lattina. Un arco olfattivo dominato dall'orzo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale e la maniera in cui permane è corta. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido appare trasparente. Il colore è giallo dorato. Il corpo è medio. L'amaro è poco presente. La forza gustativa è normale e permane in maniera appena percepibile. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di facile beva. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, frutta secca, erbaceo e agrumi.
