Bottle, big thanks to MoritzF!
Hayish aroma, with some clay notes. Cloudy yellow, big foamy lacing off-white head. Relatively light body, heather honeyish and strawlike malt flavor, toffee , fruity minerally finish. Refreshing.

Fat hayish and herbal nose. Hazy green golden, nice foamy lacing head. Bready base, citric dry hop play on top, spice (ginger). Chewy body, light nutty aftertaste. Interresting Pils!

(swing top bottle) Clear golden colour with a nice foamy white head. Moderately sweet malty and slightly fruity (ripe pears) aroma with a tinge of hops and alcohol. Sweet flavour, medium body, smooth carbonation. Initially sweet, but not too sweet maltiness, again slightly fruity notes; medium dry malty and slightly hoppy finish, slightly bitter and alcoholic. Not perfectly balanced and rounded but tasty and pleasant to drink.

(swing top bottle) Hazy golden colour with a fluffy and slowly lacing foamy white head. Dusty and slightly sweet malty aroma with wet straw and a touch of sourdough. Bittersweet flavour, light bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel. Malty and yeasty taste; dry, light-bitter, slightly hopped finish. A bit slim but still ok, although the other Josefsheim brews are more impressive.

(swing top bottle) Hazy orange-amber colour with a stable foamy yellow head. Sweet malty aroma mixed up with strong notes of sourdough and a touch of fruitiness (apricots). Moderately sweet malty taste, yeasty fruity notes, medium body and carbonation, slightly floral hoppy, light bitter finish with some spice in the aftertaste (nuts, herbs, lavender). Very good and unconventional Märzen.

(swing top bottle) Clear straw golden colour with a fluffy foamy white head, leaving some lace. Slightly dusty and sweet malty nose with herbal and spicy hops. Very tasty and moderately sweet malty taste initially with a soft but balanced herbal hoppy note getting stronger towards the medium dry finish, which is a bit (ethereally) spicy and has an almost perfectly balanced bitterness with a dense note of caramel in the aftertaste. An outstanding Pilsener, more than ever for the Sauerland region.

Swing-top bottle: Mid-sized creamy head, slowly diminishing, amber coloured; unusual sweetish fruity (peaches ?) and dusty/malty nose; moderate sweetish-malty flavour, a bit alcoholic; sweet-malty finish with some bitterness arriving very late. Not bad, but this Bock lacks some moderate bitterness......................

Swing-top bottle (bought at the brewery): Clear, golden, bigger almost rocky white head, long lasting, visible carbonation;sweet pale malty nose with aromatic noble hops and without any trace of cardboard; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; long bitter-aromatic-sweet finish. A very fine Pils, that could have been brewed in Bohemia......A real gem, compared to the beers brewed just around the corner in the neighbourhood: Veltins (gulp!) and Warsteiner ( cough...)........
