Explosive gushing to very good, lacey, stable cream to mango head over fully hazy orange-brown beer. With the foamfontain, also explosion of fruity hopesters, rosewater, lunaria, lupulinbomb; pistacchio marzipan. Dry, fruity flavour but also a more chemical (in the best sense of the word) and woody dry-bitterness. Oxydized hops, lupulin, hopoils, citruspeel, rosewater. At least medium bodied, +/- overcarbonated, spritzy, chewy, and more than a tad sticky. Certainly not bad, if just under the real top-IPA treshold. Brauerei Gushwork? Purchased @ the brewery

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a cloudy, opaque golden with a solid and lacing, white head. Aroma of wort and a faint hint of citrusy hops. Light body, sweet wort accents and cardboard. No bitterness. Meh. 230725

Bottle, Eurospar, Spielberg. Clear darker orange coppery, medium and quite lasting white head. Medium bready nose, slightly sweet, some nice caramel notes. Milder bitterness, a bit grassy. Spicy finish and grassy spicy aftertaste. Lighter body. Drinkable.

Red-shot dark brown beer under a frothy lagered cream to dark beige head. Roast, ashes, heated waffle syrup, undergrowth. Dry, really ashy, some caramel backthroat; liquorice. Very faintly mineral. Bit chewy & viscous; good carbonation. Decent light stout.

Small, rather stable yellow head over (cold)hazed amber beer. Quite some caramel upon opening, parsley, toffee, but also something chemical, vaguely smelling of shoepolish. Bitter leafy flavour however, autumn leaves, bittering hops. Ends metallic, with some pine. Warming up, the caramel returns to the flavour, as well withs some apple(skins). Feels very carbonated, almost fizzy, which works against the sweetness of the caramel, adding some acidity. Very slick, light to medium bodied. Nose wasn't exactly a delight, but for the rest, pretty much OK.

Sampled @ the Elsenwang brewpub. Big thanks to Helena and Hübert for driving us here! Thick-set, creamy, fluffy head over almost black beer. Nutty, ashy, bit roast; sweet dried fruit, overripe bananapeel. Liquorice, ashes, sweet roast, and finally some (C) hops too. Pretty well bodied, viscous but nowhere cloying, whilst some of the other steroid Gusswerk brews are a bit. Despite the strength, quite drinkable!

Sampled @ the Elsenwang brewpub. Big thanks to Helena and Hübert for driving us here! Small if lacey whitish head over dull ochre beer. Islay malt a mile out, as well as some citrus notes creeping through. Again Islay malt in the mouth, whisky, and again a tad citrus/orange. Very syrupy feel, medium to good carbonation which lightens the MF a bit. Any Islay malt aficionado would be satisfied. The beer was nicknamed hidden whisky beer, but I utterly fail to understand the "hidden"...

Sampled @ the Elsenwang brewpub. Big thanks to Helena and Hübert for driving us here! Head fast gone; red-shot brown beer. Liqueurish, red fruit. Or better: red fruitliqueur. Alcohol obvious in the nose. Again syrupy-liqueurish. Bitter grapes, but decent amount of sugar too, albeit masked. Sticky, viscous, syrupy. Not very carbonated. I suppose nobody quaffs Doppelbock, but this is more liqueur than beer.

Sampled @ the Elsenwang brewpub. Big thanks to Helena and Hübert for driving us here! Very dense, utterly stable cream-brown head over jet-black beer. Liquorice, blue grapes, roast, but suggesting quite some sweetness. Liquorice; a light, almost fruity sweetness, ashes, wood. Bit sticky, well-bodied, viscous; good carbonation. It is a bit unidimensional IMHO, but to Austrian standards probably revolutionary.

Taster from bottle at ABC Awards, Ried im Innkreis. Yellow clear color, small white head. Smells earthy, toffee, light pepper. Medium body, soft carbonation. Tastes earthy, tobacco, light pepper, light pines. Finishes light to medium bitter with notes of pines, tobacco and earthy notes. Pretty decent one
