50cl bottle courtesy of thistrybird @ RBBSG II. Ambrée, col fin beige. Arôme est malté très allemand dans l’approche avec un citronné modéré, je note très peu le bouquet aigre. Palais est malté moyen, caramel sur une influence bien allemande avec un caramel prenant sans être trop doux suivi d’une petite note chocolatée. Le côté ’sour’ si il y en a un manque à l’appel. Reste sympa de cette brasserie qui tente de revisiter les styles allemands.

Ehh… far from exiting.

Draught at Hamnmästaren, Malmö
Cloudy golden color with small head. Light smell of wheat and feet; the mouthfeel is almost oily, some wheat flavor, lightly spicy, very lightly fruity, with low bitterness.
Is this a historical recipe? It doesn’t break through.
