Cloudy golden with a big white head. Grain, hay and yoghurt nose. Acid and grain flavour. Third flawed beer in a sampler six pack of Ricklinger. That’s just not good enough.

Cloudy yellow, medium head. Smoke, hay, cheap ham and over cooked vegetables aroma. Flavour = smoked maize and cabbage. I have never tasted that, but now I know what it would be like...

Unclear orange, disappearing white head. Grain and hay in the aroma. Sweet grainy flavour, with some acidity not unlike oranges.

Black with a lasting light brown head. Weird aroma - chocolate, caramel and molasses, but also mint, earth and some perfumey hops. Dry and bitter without much roast character. Lasting bitter finish.

Huge, dense, whipped eggwhite-like head over lemon-yellow beer; some lacing. Smoked nose from the word ’go’ - but it is the smoke from a lighted match, sulphur imposed on the ham, or the hearth smoking near burn-out. It is not unnice, but I think next to a Schlenkerla, this would appear crude, as a cabbage next to asparagus tips. In the taste the same kind of smokiness, but on the good side, it is not overpowering. It remains sulphury, a wet woodblock glowing in the fireplace. Behind this hides some sweet malt, babycorn or other primeur vegetable from the delicatessenjar. In the end, the sulphur accumulates, making it slightly less palatable. Light to medium bodied, slick, and a bit of astringency backthroat. Original, if not really great Rauchbier. Special brewery, this one. Thanks, SS-DD

Bottled. Hazy bronze coour, rich firm head. Caramelly nose. Sweet and soft with medium body. Pleasant buttery caramelly malt flavour toppedby some grassy, spicy hops. Low-medium bitterness. Mild, yet flavourful. Top märzen!

Bottled, thanks jeverszeuge! Clear nut brown, rich beige head. Earthy malt aroma. Fairly sweet with soft mouthfeel and medium body. Fairly low on hops, restrained earthy malt flavours. Has a slight citric edge, probably from improper keeping so no points deducted. Low bitterness.

Bottled, thanks jeverszeuge! Hazy golden, rich creamy head. Intense grassy hops up front. Dry and bready, very soft. Fresh and very drinkable with good bitterness. Lovely pils!
