Restrained nose. Taste starts with an intense mouthfeeling. Caramel, honey and yeast. Disturbing bitterness, strange finish.

Nice fruity nose, zesty and unripe goosebrry. Crisp, faint fruity taste, slightly hoppy.

Bottle from Marken-Erlebniswelt, Bitburg brewery - many thanks to mom & dad! Pours hazy yellow with a big, slowly collapsing, foamy, white head; some lacing & sediment. Aroma of unripe tangerine, orange peel, lemon zest, yellow peach, fruity yoghurt, pineapple, papaya. Taste is light fruity sweet, notes of peach & mandarin; quickly a medium hoppy bitterness strikes with orange & mandarin rind, a bit grassy too, on a faint bready & doughy malty base; touch of lemon zest in the back. Dry, grassy & floral hoppy finish, lingering orange rind. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. This passes the test and it's quite pleasant, but it lacks some finesse.

Bottle at Frankfurt Airport. Hazy, sort of one of those dull hazes, with a medium head. Some pine and grapefruit but generally the hops are quite stale, obvious oxidation, some cardboard. I think this works structurally but hop freshness is definitely an issue here.

Clear golden pour with a fine thick white head. Fine lacing. Nice. Ok intensity in the aroma. Balanced fine round sweetness and an ok carbonation level. Malty, fruity and mild citric flavor. Fine session able beer.

Bottle, Frankfurt Airport. Slight haze, thick head, light amber colour. Spicy hop and biscuity malt on the nose. Moderate bitterness, light fruitiness, and with a nice balancing bready malt character. Tasty, refreshing amber lager.

Bottle, courtesy of MiP & Yespr. Pours slightly hazy amber with stable white head. Clear aroma of malt, fruit and hops, with hints of caramel and touches of yeast. Bitter, hoppy and citric flavour with floral, estery and malty notes and mild, spicy touches. Sweetish, estery aftertaste with malty and hoppy hints. Warming alcohol presence. A nice one.
