The Dortmunder ('export') edition of the old familiar Schlappeseppel, bottle bought at a store in Leidersbach on our way back from the Oberpfalz to Belgium, thanks to Goedele. Snow white, moussey, medium thick, slowly breaking head over a clear, pure and deep golden robe with lively strings of sparkling. Aroma of white bread crust, grass, wet limestone, straw bale, minerals, dried field flowers, chicken food. Clean, somewhat sweetish onset, pale maltiness with minerally side notes from moderate carbonation; medium long grassy and floral hop bitterness, slightly leafy with dry straw and dandelion accents, drying gently and slowly but effectively as the malt sweetishness fades. Crisp, sleek German Lager, a bit more generic than the classic Schlappeseppel but still far preferable over the often rice- or corn-diluted macro lagers found throughout the world.

Clear orange beer, small creamy off-white head, a little stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: very malty, grains, messy, some cardboard, very oxidized. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet malts, grains, very metallic, caramel, weird and not great. Aftertaste: a little bitter, dry, cardboard, bleh.

Karbunn on väga kõrge, aga muidu täitsa viisakas nisukas.
