Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Hazy and opaque pale yellow with a small, white head - pretty much looks like a Belgian Wit. Light body, artificial banana sweetness - very intense flavours. Absolutely no hops to be found. 040409

Bottled(500ml). -Nice reddish/brown coloured, medium sized off-white head, weak coffee caramel nose. The taste isn’t much different; very watery with weak notes of coffee and grain. As Doggythedog allready said, definitely the dullest schwarzbier that I’ve had in a while.

Bottle, 4.3% (the Slovenian importers label said 4.8% heh), 9.8° that ogivlado brought from Slovenia and shared with me (thanks!) After hearing it was the highest rated of all the beers we’ve had today bar Forstner Maibock and after seeing the lovely red-brown, almost black body with a greyish brown head in the glass we had somewhat big expectations from this beer. Unfortunately, this never lived up to them. The nose is extremely weak, grainy, with some very light coffee. The taste is even weaker if that’s possible. Water, some dried figs but mostly dry grain, some popcorn, dull and extremely light, definitely the dullest schwarzbier that I’ve had in a while. I was a bit disappointed that they don’t import it here but now I’m glad they don’t. Boo for Krombacher.

Bottled. Easily the best non alcohol hefe weizen I’ve had so far. Very fruity, no unpleasant by-flavors, no wortiness, decent body for the type and a decent balance. Can you ask for more if you don’t want any alcohol in a beer? Beerwise it is an uninteresting hefeweizen.
