Bottle, 5.6%. Spicy and bready aroma. Clear yellow colour. Nice stable white head. The flavour is surprisingly good, a little bready and sweet maltiness. Hint of spices, like spicy hops. Clean.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7

Bottle: Golden coloured, quickly diminishing, but lacing white head; robust, distinctive sweet-malty nose with the faintest tinge of alcohol and a touch of aromatic hops; solid sweet-malty flavour, rounde by a light bitterness; medium-bodied; sweet-malt and aromatic hops in the finish. A well balanced and tasty brew............

(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a foamy white medium head. Medium-sweet malty and citrus-fruity nose with light herbal notes. Medium-sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a crispy carbonation. Malty taste with fruity accents, shy herbal hops in the background; moderately dry, slightly bitter finish with herbal notes. Another reliable decent brew by Schlossbrauerei Irlbach.

5.6
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 5.5

(bottle) Clear golden colour with a small foamy white head. Slightly sweet malty nose with floral and herbal hops and a touch of honey and citrus. Initially malty with dense citrus fruity notes rather hop balanced brew with a slightly floral hoppy and light bitter finish. All in all not that bad, but too light bodied and it lacks a bit character.
