The bar where I had this listed it as DAB Dortmunder. What I had tasted more like a Helles than a Pilsner.Cow pie aroma. Golden color medium head. Grainy taste, but not bad.

Bottle: Straw-golden coloured, lively carbonation, firm, creamy head like beaten egg-white; shy, dryish malty background in the distinctive grassy-hoppy nose; light bitter-sweet flavour, watery MF; bready, grainy finish with a grassy hoppiness in the aftertaste. Not undrinkable....

Bottled. Clear, golden with a small white head. Quite weak aroma with caramel and grain. Malty aroma, a bit on the grainy side, with a little fruityness. Decent body, malt and some hops in the finish. Quite decent beer. (070331)

Pours clear gold with a small fizzy white head. Sweet hay notes, malt, and a bit of fruit. Body is watery. Flavor is thin. Malt and grass are there, but not much of anything, really. Sigh, not worth another look.
