Large can at Hotel Leman, Majorca, Spain. A golden coloured pour with a healthy white head on top. Bitter, yeasty, citrus, slight fruit. Didn't finish it, at least it was wet on a sweltering day.

On tap at Amrum Beach Club, Majorca, Spain. A hazy golden/orange coloured pour with a huge white head on top. Sweet, yeasty, spice, banana action. Actually quite drinkable in the beer desert that is Majorca.

Fles via Rewe als Kellerbier. Lichtbruin troebel bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is bitterzoet en licht kruidig met ets van graan, wat honing, hazelnoot en geroosterd brood. Heel fijn bier.

Nose is pils malt and a touch of citrus. Subtle, but good craft. The german malt is touched up with some orange and lemon hop accents. Very subtle. Nice medium driness. Medium plus carb. Touch of pepper? Old School with no rough edges.

Bottle 0,5 ltr: Cloudy brown colored brew with an delightful sweet bitter taste with hints of caramel, lightly roasted malts and vaguely dried fruits. Best Krombacher so far.
