Aroma of grains, straw, flowers, herbs, bread, some honey.
Tastes similar, with some more grass.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes grassy, floral, bready, a bit herbal, a not sweet.

Good. Quaffable, with nice grainy and floral notes and a good honey like sweet body. A bit too less aromatic though for the strength.

getruken im Sommer 2016 Bei dunklen Bier gibt es die übermäßig süßen und die eher bitteren Porter bzw. Stouts. Dieses passt da nicht so ganz in dieses System, es überzeugt eher durch eine ausgeprägte Säure, die mir persönlich zu stark ist. Ein außergewöhnliches Bier, das aber besser sein könnte.

Als „Hengist“ bezeichnen mittelalterliche Urkunden den Höhenzug von Buchkogel, Wildoner Schlossberg und Bockberg, sowie dessen westlichen Ausläufern. Im 10./11. Jahrhundert befand sich in diesem Bereich die Hengistburg als Sitz des Markgrafen der Mark an der mittleren Mur, die im Westen bis zur Koralm, im Norden bis zur Kalten Rinne bei Röthelstein, im Osten bis zur Wasserscheide zwischen Mur und Raab und im Süden bis etwa an die heutige Landesgrenze des Bundeslandes Steiermark reichte. Dieses Territorium bildete die Keimzelle der nachmaligen Steiermark., erklärt uns die homepage der Brauerei die Namensfindung der Brauerei. Das Bernstein wird auch als Hausbier bezeichnet und ist das Standard-Bier der Brauerei. Es wirkt nicht nur farblich wie ein Wiener Lager, sondern auch geschmacklich - allerdings ist es bitterer und weniger süffig. Kein alltägliches Bier und auch kein Bier für meinen Alltag.
