At the Regen train station, many thanks Fin, and Jonas really as well, for sharing it around before I had to rush into the stupidly overpriced but cute Waldbahn (10.30€ for a 25 minute ride? XD) to Bayerisch Eisenstein / Železná Ruda. And what's with the ticket machine refusing foreign cards?!

But anyway, enough gripes with the German train system. The beer. Slightly darker amber-golden body, reddish, bit hazy, good off-white head. Caramelly and somewhat spicy aroma. Caramelly, almost syrupy wheaty taste, some stone fruit esters, not too spicy. Dunno, quite bockish for a Weizenbock in a way, less Weizenbockish. Didn't thrill.

Bottle, shared after a lazy meal with good cheese. Brown, slightly amber. Malty, burned rubber, wooden sweetness. Same goes for the taste, with the addition of creamy buttery sweetness. Good drinkability.

Bottle picked up from Fristo Getrankemarkt, Marktheidenfeld and consumed at home Tuesday 4th November 2025 after a visit to Parsberg, Regensburg and Plattling with short walks around all three. Listening to ByteFM, we have a homemade Pastisio with Greek Salad for tea tonight. Pours dark brown, muddy actually more of a hazy appearance and an off white head that didn't last so long. Some sweetness, malty with a little dried fruit and a pleasant sat by the hearth in front of a fire warming quality to it. Nice

Bottle picked up from Fristo Getrankemarkt, Marktheidenfeld and consumed at home Thursday 30th October 2025 after a visit to Dampfbierbrauerei for a brewery trip earlier. Is it a lively pour or was I just a tad careless, probably the latter. Pours hazy gold/light amber with a huge frothy white head, nicely soft in the mouth, very drinkable considering the 6.8%abv, fresh, bannoffee comes through, wheaty, it's nicely warming but I like the freshness. This is very enjoyable.

On tap at an Asian restaurant (fine but not great) then draft at Zur Wache, Marktheidenfeld Friday 24th October 2025 after a 7-8 hour drive from Hoek Van Holland. Pours light gold, almost clear, actually it's definitely clear, nice soft mouthfeel, a little dry, however not as crisp as hopped, also bitterness light to middling, actually after the next beer at Zur Wache this is a improvement, actually great clarity, still lacking a little bitterness, oh wait after the Kellerbier you really notice the bitterness, good stuff.

Bottle at an Asian restaurant (fine but not great) then bottle at Zur Wache (much, much better), Marktheidenfeld Friday 24th October 2025 after a 7-8 hour drive from Hoek Van Holland. Initially the pour at the restaurant was hazy yellow with only a small white head but then the pour at Zur Wache was much better, there was a huge white foamy head, cloudy yellow, yeast slowly falling into the body of the beer, it looked great. This is a solid Hefeweisse on flavour and aroma, light tang had at but classic yeastyiness with elements of banana and wheatiness and a little background clove, we really liked this, tasted very good and the best of the Martinsbräu beers thus far.
