Originally rated March 2005. Seems to be one of the most popular Dormunder. This brew pours a golden-yellow colour with a descent white head. Lacing is very good and has a nice design. Smell is clean and malty. The taste is very smooth, hardly bitter, and with a big aftertaste of corn. Ingedients lists water, malt, hops. No corn there ?? Does not taste like a pilsner (with the bitter hops missing), but a very refreshing beer, with no unpleasant characteristics.

Bottle. It pours a crystal clear yellowish golden body and a small, white head that lasts. Artificial lemonade on the nose, not bad, but far from interesting. The same goes for flavor, it’s equally uninteresting and one tracked. Thin on the palate, quite dry, with a lemonade finish. Won’t miss it. 120211

Decent head and okay darker yellow body with light carbonation. Soft hop-cardboard lager aroma of no real interest. Flavour is light hops with a planty aftertaste. Watery palate. This is just generally a crappy beer.
