33cl bottle bought at Berliner Bierfestival. Pours slightly hazy amber with a large, off-white head. Malty aroma with noticeable herbal and hoppy notes, hints of caramel and pine. Moderate sweet with a pleasantly hoppy and fairly bitter and slightly dry finish. Tasty and refreshing. More in the direction of American amber than German pilsener. Interesting one.

(bottle, 33cl) Cloudy, copper colour with a big and slightly tanned foamy head. Yeasty, slightly piney and fruity hoppy aroma with notes citrus, grapefruit and red berries, traces of cara-malt in the background. Quite bitter flavour, rather light bodied with a soft carbonation. Somewhat raw hoppy character, including piney/resiny and fruity accents on a slim cara-malty base; dry and moderately bitter hoppy finish with lingering resiny and subtle fruity accents. Not bad, but I prefer 50cl bottles for my “Molotovs”. 21.VIII.14

(bottle, 33cl) Almost cloudy, dark amber colour with a big and tanned, slowly lacing foamy head. Slightly toasted and nutty malty and moderately oaty aroma with slightly sour berry-fruity notes. Moderately sour and delicately sweet flavour, light bodied with a rather tame carbonation. Sourish fruity taste with a vaguely toast-malty and delicately caramelly background; slim and sour-fruity and tart finish. Rather infected. 28.VII.14

330ml bottle. Hazy, yellowish golden colour with small, frothy, collapsing, completely fading, white head. Spicy, wheaty aroma, herbal coriander note in foreground, cautious fruitiness, some orange zest, pepper yeast spiciness merges with the coriander. Taste is moderately tart, fruity, hints of lemon, peach, orange, a bitter touch of orange zest, herbal hoppy overtones, a coriander touch; slightly sweet, juicy finish. More jolting than refreshing tartness. OK.

330ml bottle. Slightly cloudy golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Unspecific fruity hoppy and unspecific fruity malty aroma, maybe due to the amaranth, a herbal hoppy touch. Taste is moderately sweet malty, floral sweet-ish grainy, fresh grassy and minimally herbal hoppy overtones; slightly bitter and mineral, chalky finish. Has a genuine touch possibly due to the amaranth used, matching hoppy overtones remind me of fresh Tettnanger. Wouldn’t make me wonder if future ratings of this beer conglomerate around a positive pole "nice and interesting experiment" and a negative one called "homebrew with low-budget ingredients". I tend to the positive side, but could have had the opposite inclination on another day just as well.

Bottle. Hazy gold with a thin head. Aroma is fruity like a Belgian ale. Flavour is dry herbal, some sugar fruit leading to a really interesting bitterness that fills the back of the mouth and lingers, makes the mouth water.

330ml bottle. Clear, copper-ish amber colour with average to huge, thick, frothy, decently lasting and lacing, off-white to beige head. Piney, floral and slightly resinous, hoppy aroma, punk style dirty-spicy-yeasty background, cautious malty basis with a dry, nuttily touch of nut pellicle. Taste is slightly floral, bitter hoppy, fresh grassy hop notes, a dry, cautiously nuttily touch. Concerning style more Crossover than Punk: Pilsener-Amber Lager-Brown Ale. Concerning everything else I’d like to quote a section of what is cited on the label: "Diese Mischung ist wirkungsvoll, denn diese Mischung knallt ganz doll." And beyond that, more ’Slime’ for the adepts: "Ich brauch’ dich, am liebsten jeden Tag, Denn du päppelst mich auf, wenn ich down bin. Ich glaub’, es ist der Alkohol, den ich an dir mag. Mit dir hat das Wochenende einen Sinn." Not to forget the most inspirated line: "Ich spür’s sofort, du bist ein ganz schöner Brecher, und nicht nur das, wenn du alle bist, bist du ein geiler Aschenbecher."
