Bottle. Pours with a small off-white head and a hazy copper body. Strong aroma that fills the room. Berries right off the top with notes of grain, buck-wheat, caramel and a bit of orange zest. Taste is honey and sour mashed malt, with a bit of wet dog. A bit salty too with a lot of wheat. Light bodied and refreshing though. On the fizzy side.

bottle from a small drinks market in Rottweil, near the Black Forest. What a surprise to find such a speciality from Franconia here! Slightly hazy copper colour, small head. Very pleasant carbonation, rather low, but still nice. Malty background with some intensive hoppy and pleasantly bitter flavours. Hints of roasted malt. Delicious!

Bottle, thanks a lot pivnizub! Wonderfull fresh hop nose (citrus, flowers). Golden fine carbonation, low head. Rich honey entry, flowery hops to follow it up. Light sparkly mouthfeel, chewy and filling. Aromatic exit with dry hop bitternes on the tongue. Wonderfully drinkable brew

500 ml bottle purchased at Lukas Liquor in Kansas City, Missouri. Pour is slightly chill hazed, orange-ish copper brown with a loose two inch off white head. Aroma of sweet hazelnut caramel faint, also some slight smokiness in there. Initially taste is watery sweet nuttiness. Nothing bad about the flavor, just a bit watery. As it warms things come together much better and there is great interplay between the bready toasty malt and the slightly bitter earthiness. Minerally throughout. The thinner palate makes this quite drinkable. Nice residual toastiness, earthiness really lingers nicely. Quaffable, nice session beer.
