As Breitelesauer Lager. Very dark coppery-brown, clear body, thick off-white head. Creamy, lean, lightly raisiny dark bread aroma, soft. Soft, lightly bubbly taste, chocolatey grainy touches, vague soapy-flowery hoppy undertones. Supremely drinkable actually, this is impressive! Won't won any prizes for complexity but it works so well!

500 ml bottle. Chestnut brown with a fluffy head. Caramel, nuts, citrus, toasted malt, basement notes, pumpernickel, wort. Mild dry bitterness, malty sweetness. Light bodied, oily watery texture, soft to low carbonated, mild dry finish. Rather mild and smooth Dunkles, not too special though.

And on tap at Franconian Bierfestival, Nürnberg, Thursday 16th June 2022 in the company of Jude, Baz, Ursula, Stefan and Jonas. Pours warm gold with a white head, super drinkable, nice softness, really soft, maltiness, bitterness creeps in at the end.

Tap. Dark golden brown. Bread, malty, a bit quince. Soft and sweet, a bit too sweet; sticky aftertaste. Nearly enough front bitterness to balance this out. Oddly drinkable.

Tap. Dark golden, unfiltered. Nice hoppy smell. Some caramel fart malt. Crisp, chewy. Like it. Very drinkable.

Tap. Cloudy pale amber, rocky white lace. Juicy yeasty nose. Chewy fruity malt made, fine sparkly dry on the palate, gooseberry and flowering meadow retronasal.

500ml bottle purchased at Beers of Europe and drunk at home. Reddish brown and clear with a fluffy white head. Toasty malt in the aroma, some powdered chocolate and a little hint of redcurrant. Sweet taste, more chocolate malt notes with some hoppy bitterness in the chalky finish. Light body, heavy carbonation. A better-than-average dunkel with some personality.

Breit wird man vom Breitenlesauer auf alle Fälle nach 5 - 6 Halben. Allerdings ist es gar nicht „le sauer“, sondern geht eher Richtung „le süß“ (wie der Franzose sagt). Schöne Ladung Fruchtkompott. Mild getreidig. Ein Hauch floraler Noten. Alles nicht zu intensiv, aber vor allem auch nicht zu wässrig. Ganz gut komponiert. Recht weich und sämig. Ein hochanständiges und süffiges helles Weizen.
