Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty, and so is the flavor, though added light notes of both straw and metal. The body is thin.

(swing top bottle) Hazy, golden to copper colour with a thick and dense off-white foamy head. Sweet and slightly nutty toast-malty aroma with caramel and shy herbal hops. Sweet and slightly yeasty-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Toasty malt-accented, slightly yeasty and nutty taste with notes of caramel and a delicate herbal hoppy blend; moderately dry and slightly bitter finish. Well-rounded brew (21.IX.08).

Bottled. An unclear dark golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet wheaty with light notes of banana and spices. The flavor is sweet wheaty which also lends it a slight acidity, leading to a dry wheaty finish. The body is thin - no wonder.

(swing top bottle) Clear, copper colour with a loose and light beige foamy head. Light-sweet, distinctively peaty smoke-malty aroma with iodine. Light-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation and a well-matured mouthfeel. Peaty malty, iodinic and mineral-salty taste; moderately dry, slightly sweet and minimal-bitter finish with a soft but eclectic smoke character. A bench mark for whiskey-malt beers (16.08.08).

Draught at Rittmayer-Keller, Kreuzberg. Dark brown, minimal head. Smoky beechwood aroma. Dry with clean, well rounded mouthfeel. Lightly roasty with good levels of intricate smoke flavour. The malt character could be deeper, but already as it is it is a top effort.

My beer is a totally different label and says 4.9% and does not have Raiterla, just Hallerndorfer Rauchbier (Gold Award 2007). Assume its the same. Hazelnut color, nose of chestnuts, smoked gouda, cherries and apricots. Moderately strong smoke, but a sweet malty backbone. Medium body. Smokier than expect with a lingering smoked chestnut finish. Very pleaseant. Another random beer found in japan.
