Bottle. Slightly hazy orange color with nice eggshell head. Aroma is hoppy, citrus, spruce, herbal. Taste is bready, earthy hops, citrus. Finishes rather dry. Light-bodied, maybe even a bit watery, with natural carbonation. Quite atypical for an IPA, it feels lieblich and light-bodied and still has an earthy hop character.It's been a few years since I've rated this, so now let's rate the Wimmer-brewed one. Zwickeled by Bryan and Bottle, many thanks Max! A distinct bready caramel malt character, punchy resinous hops, earthy too. Taste is a bit rustic, toasted malts, caramel. Bitter finish, almost warming in the back. A bit foamy carbonation. Solid and almost old school German, I would say. 709/
