Mörkt bärnstensfärgad och rejält disig vätska med ett tilltaget skumlock. Aromer av kryddnejlika, skumbanan, ljus deg och torkat gräs. Markerad maltighet med lite kladdighet. Gräsig, örtig beska och medelfyllig kropp.

Bottle. Clear gold with a big bad white white head. Aroma and taste of wort, grains and mild hints of citrus fruits. Quite fruity and sweet. Low bitterness. Medium carbonation. Naja.

Can to mug.
Appearance: clear yellow with a subtle rusty hue in the color and a finger's worth of white foamy head which retained well then slid off delicately to leave some light lace
Aroma: honey-ed biscuits/sweet bready to white bread crust maltiness with a nice light floral to sweet freshly cut grassy hop note
Flavor: leads with those prior noted malts and the hops seem way more faded here; finishes like smooth sweet honey-ed biscuits and crisp
Texture: light to medium bodied, definitely sessionable, very smooth along the tongue with a little bit of creaminess
Overall: yessssssss! Definitely a wonderful Helles lager I'd bang again! Soon enough, I'll be sippin' this one on the back porch this Spring.

0,5l, bottle.
Pours clear gold, with a fully diminishing, thin white head. Weak aromas of malt, flavor is also quite weak. Both have a faint sweet finish. A very light Hell beer I'd say..

Flaska från SB. Bärnstensfärgad disig vätska med medelhögt krämigt skum. Stilmässigt någonstans mellan en dunkelweiss och en hefe. Lätt kropp, frisk, lite blek kryddning, drickvänlig. Ok

A really good weissbier. Can't say much more about it as I had to drink it in haste, not too cold, and got a bit agitated in my bag on the way from the shop. Didn't pour it in a glass, but it seemed to have quite big head in the bottle, with plenty of carbonation.

Nagy, nem túl tartós hab, arany szín. Malátás, enyhén fűszeres illat. Édeskés, malátás, enyhén fűszeres íz. Könnyű közepesen szénsavas, csak leheletnyit keserű. Tisztességesen elkészített helles, de ittam már jobbat.

Can to mug.
Appearance: transparent copper color with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which took it's time to dissipate and once that happened some speckled lace graced the sides of the glass nicely
Aroma: clean caramel malts, toasted nuts, toffee/butterscotch whiff, and some subtle earthy crisp hops further underneath
Flavor: leans towards the sweet side with a kind earthy vibe trying to enter in underneath, mild aftertaste of caramel/bready malts
Texture: between light and medium bodied, definitely sessionable; not as crisp as I would have thought this could have been; finishes slightly dry with a mild toastiness to it.
Overall: for the most part, I'd say this was a pretty nice festbier, I would want this again because part of me thinks the carb may have fallen off a bit, hmmmm, did it? Still, I'm a festbier fan and I hope to find next Autumn.

If I compare this beer with the valentins, this one is clearly better, wheat, notes of banana, sweet, a bit watery, good smell at the nose, 19.10.16, at our rented flat, Santa-Justa area, I have bought this bottle at the corte inglés.

Can. Adnams Holkham Norfolk. I’ve rated this and it got lost. Ffs. Anyway it’s slightly on the sweeter nuttier caramel side of things. Easy drinking but not pulling any trees up especially.
