Strong helles with a malty focus. Golden, medium body, thin finish. Boring - not nearly Christmassy enough.

Looks like a foggy Helles, bad head though. Aroma and taste are like the big brother and the body is surprisingly full for a light beer. Not bad at all.

A dark red beer with a beutiful head - but it lacks aroma. It has a fresh slightly prickling flavor that ends in a slight metallic aftertaste.

I had the bottle labelled Konig Ludwig. Clean and light, with a lightly spicy and lemony aroma. Appearance was a very pale cloudy yellow with smallish fizzy head that quickly dissipated. Flavor was light and mainly lemony, refreshing.

Not spectacular - less aroma than in comparable bavarian dunkelweizen. Murky brown. Slightly estery, neutral aftertaste.
