(swing top bottle, 33cl, nowadays labelled as Gruibinger Bier “Hilsenbecks Keltengold”) Clear, pale golden colour with a medium-sized foamy white head. Discreet aroma: slightly strawy malty with light grainy notes and just a whiff of floral hops. Moderately sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a very pleasantly soft carbonation. Mildly malty, slightly grainy base with a late arriving hoppy bitterness and herbal and floral accents, combined with subtle notes of honey in the aftertaste. Well-rounded brew, pleasant to drink. 09.V.10
