Bottle, 6.2% as Landskron Maibock. 6 months past BB date. Weak aroma, metallic and fruity. Hazy orange colour, very unstable head. The flavour is a lot better than the aroma, quite peppery with a subtle spicy hoppiness. Slightly sweet and malty, but very well balanced by the alcohol. Might have improved with time.

Bottle. Pours clear golden with stable off-white head. Clear aroma of yeast and malt, with faint touches of hops. Sweetish, malty flavour with estery notes and bitter, hoppy touches. Bitterish and estery afteetaste. High carbonation. Okay but nothing special.

1L. bottle. Many thanks to Koelschtrinker for the bottle. Tasted on the 03/07/2018 at home. Clear golden colour with a lot of bubbles and a lasting white head. Aroma of yeast, caramel, bread and grains. Taste is the same with a strong presence of yeast and malts leading to a medium bitter long finish. Next one please!

500ml bottle [Thanks again, Gunnar!]. Minimalyl cloudy, dark brown colour with ruby glimmer and average, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Grainy aroma with hints of spelt, artificial sweetener, malt lozenge. Taste is sweet, malty, slightly sugary, hints of malt lozenge and rock sugar, aspartame overtones. I don't know if this is reminiscent of the GDR, but there are some other beers around in Saxony (cf. e.g. Lausitzer Porter) that dispense any seriousness concerning kind and quality of ingredients as well as effort to meet the style.

500ml bottle [Thanks Gunnar!]. Clear, yellow-ish, pale golden colour with average, frothy to creamy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, snow-white head. Cautious, strawy and grainy aroma, weak citrusy and grassy hoppy overtones with hints of lemon and a waxy touch, some malt spiciness. Taste is mildly bitter, grassy hoppy, minimally citrusy, clean strawy and grainy, malty basis; lingering, dry and bitter finish. Very clean and mild, yet finally with insistent hop bitterness. Not bad.
