Bottle: Hazy copper coloured, no head to speak of, mild to moderate sweetish-bitter aroma of toasted malt, Vienna malt, traces of caramel and a certain fruitiness, shy herbal hops underneath; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied and fizzy; increasing sweetness (!) towards the Viennese malty finish, some herbal spots in the mild bitter aftertaste. Quite O.K. ...

Hefiger, leicht säuerlich hefiger Beginn. Moderat malzig, feinherb, wenig würzig. Konstant hefig, die Säure nimmt etwas ab, mittellanger Abgang. Okay, unsicher, ob die leichte Säure gewollt ist. 10/7/9/8/10/8

Dunkler, süß bananiger Beginn. Rosinen, vergoren fruchtig, milde und weiche Herbe. Leicht alkoholisch, was aber gut eingebunden ist, moderat würzig, langer Abgang. Etwas zu süß und monoton, insgesamt aber nett. 9/8/10/8/8/8

Yes, again a 0,33 l bottle from kappldav123. Thanks a lot! Cloudy dark brown in the glass with a more than one finger beige head. Choco malty smell. Taste starts also with choco, sweet malt, some berry fruits. Low to no carbonation. Creamy. Stoutish. Some dry coffee to the end. Really nice.
