Brewed somewhere in Bavaria. On tap at the pub. The beer starts malty and slightly sweet. The body is full and slightly roasted. A bit dry. not too sweet. The aftertaste is roasted, probably a bit too sweet, but very nice. --> a great Altbier! 12/12/11/12 --- Beer merged from original tick of Rheinisches Alt on 05 Feb 2023 at 21:43 - Score: 7.

a) 25. July 2013. On tap at the brewpub.
The beer starts a bit sweet and watery. The mainpart is for my taste a it too neutral and sweet, only slightly bitter and not typical for a pils. The aftertaste is not too long, nearly no hops, sweet and a bit malty. --> doesn’t taste like a pils, but has a very high drinkability. 8/7/7/6
--> 2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
b) 5. November 2014. On tap at the pub.
This beer also seemed to be improved. Nice full and slightly sweetish body. Nicely bittered in the mainpart, quite sweetish-grainy but still fine. The aftertaste is nice intense bitter with a sweetish-grainy and "souther-German Pils-style" body. Not too bad! --- Beer merged from original tick of Gräfrather Hofbräu Pils on 05 Feb 2023 at 21:47 - Score: 6. Original review text: On tap at the pub.

b) 5. November 2014. On tap at the pub.
The beer is much better than last time. Slightly grainy-sweetish body with a nice moderate bitterness coming up. Not too much body, but fine for a Kölsch. Dry and slightly grainy aftertaste with a slightly sweetish-bitter aroma remaining on the tongue.
--> Much improved in comparison to my last visit!
