0,5 l bottle from Zisch, Wildeshausen. Clear golden, little bit pale with a one finger white foamy head. Grassy caramel with some citrus on the nose. Tastes the same, some seetness, little bit spicy, low bitterness. Thin easy drinker, nothing special.

500ml bottle. Opalescent, yellow-ish, golden colour with average, thick, firm, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting minimally lacing, snow white head. Grainy, strawy, minimally spicy, pale malty aroma, grassy-spicy hoppy and minimally doughy, yeasty overtones. Taste is slightly doughy yeasty, grainy and minimally strawy, pale malty, moderately bitter, slightly grassy-spicy hoppy, metallic overtones. Watery texture, dry palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Quite spicy, slightly doughy - not your standard Helles, above average.

Alt Irlbacher Spezial Dunkel, jetzt nur noch mit 5,2 %, Flasche vom GP Getränkemarkt, Großbeeren. - Dunkles Kastanienrotbraun, klar. - Nase nur schwach dunkelmalzig mit Brotkruste, leicht limonadig, etwas gemüseartig (gekochter Kohl), insgesamt billig. - Im Antrunk sehr blasses, leicht limonadig-süßliches Malz, ein wenig Cola-artig und mit zarten krautig-säuerlichen Zügen. Durchschnittlich rezent, eher dünn im Mund. Im Abgang leicht malzbitter und nur schwach hopfenherb. - Billig gemachtes Dunkles ohne Kraft und Tiefgang, anscheinend ein ganz anderes Bier als das von meinen Vor-Verkostern beschriebene. Traurig, daß manche Brauer nicht davor zurückschrecken, bewährte Biere durch billige Imitationen zu ersetzen. (17.7.2021.)
