Slightly hazy golden beer with a white head. Aroma of mild sweet grainy malt, straw, some cereals. Taste of slightly sourish malt, apples, grains.

Danke Friedi! Smooth mild beginning. Easy to drink, slightly grainy, very soft with a mild finish. Sessionable, slightly grainy, fruity mild in the finish.

0.33 l bottle from 'Bierothek' (Hagen), best before March 2024. Murky, brownish red with a few off-white bubbles on top of it. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity and slightly spicy aroma of caramel, honey, pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger and clove. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, quite herbal-spicy and moderately fruity taste of caramel, honey, pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger and clove, followed by a short, moderately bitter, minimally tart finish. Medium body, a little astringent mouthfeel, a bit fizzy carbonation. Decent brew with decent flavours but also with minor flaws regarding appearance and mouthfeel.

Süffiger, fruchtig zitroniger Beginn. Minimale Herbe, süß-säuerlich, erfrischend. Kaum erkennbares Bier, limonadig. 8/8/9/5/8/7

0.33 l bottle from 'Weinhandel Häckel', best before June 2023. Hazy, pale golden with a medium large, slightly fluffy, slowly diminishing, white head. Slightly sweetish, sourish, quite fruity aroma of lemon, lemonade and maybe some lime. Quite sweet, slightly sourish, rather fruity taste of lemon, lemonade, some grains and traces of lime, followed by a short, slightly tart finish. Thin to medium body, slightly astringent and gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Pleasant Radler, in no way artificial.

330ml bottle. Opalescent, yellow-ish golden colour with average, firm, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Herbal-grassy hoppy and pale malty aroma, mild pale malty spiciness. Taste is minimally sweet, slightly spicy pale malty, moderately bitter, herbal-grassy hoppy, minimally metallic, a touch of thistle, white pepper. Watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally dry palate, fine and soft carbonation. Clean, nice spicy aspects, decent bitterness - OK.

Bottle: Pale golden, a bit unclear, small but stable white foamy layer, mainly herbal-grassy nose, sweet pale malty spots underneath; mild to moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied, quite soft at least; herbal-hoppy finish with mild resinous traces. Not bad, surely better than Your classical german industrial Pils...

0.33 l bottle from local 'Marktschwärmer', 5.8% abv, best before March 2021. Almost clear, deep ruby with a thin, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity-resiny aroma of marmelade, caramel, pine and some tobacco. Quite sweet, malty, rather fruity-resiny taste of molasses, pine, marmelade, some tobacco and a touch of raisins, followed by a short, gently bitter, resiny and moderately dry finish. Medium to full body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Really tasty beer, reminds me of Anchor's Brekle's Brown, quite American taste-wise, far away from all those boring nutty-chocolatey English-style Brown Ales. Astonishing brew, probably the most interesting one which ever descended from Hagen's open-air museum.

0.33 l bottle from local 'REWE', best before July 2019. Clear, golden with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Slightly sweetish, rather grassy-spicy, quite floral and a bit fruity aroma of fresh grass, some lemon peel and hints of grains. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, quite grassy-spicy, slightly floral and a bit fruity taste of fresh grass, grains and a touch of lemon peel, followed by a short, gently bitter, rather grassy-spicy finish. Almost medium-bodied, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Very solid Lager, rather quaffable and refreshing.

0.5 l bottle from 'transfer.', best before November 2018. Clear, golden with a medium large, dense, stable, white head. Very faint, slightly sweetish, a bit grassy-spicy and minimally fruity aroma of fresh grass, some grains and traces of lemon peel. Slightly sweet, mildly bitter, a bit grassy-spicy taste of grains and some straw, followed by a short, just slightly bitter, faintly grassy-spicy finish. Thin to medium body, very smooth and just a little effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Very mild for a Pils, lacks the typical grassy hoppiness of a good one, highly drinkable nevertheless but way too expensive for what it is.
