0,33 l swing top bottle. Clear golden with a big white frothy head. That´s what you can expect from a german Pilsener. Smells low grassy. Taste starts grainy grassy, some decent bitter hop, hints of citrus in the background. Above standard carbonation. Nothing wrong for its kind but also only average german stuff.

Optisch wunderbar. In der Nase etwas gammelig, im Trunk Nelke, sauer. Bin mir nicht sicher, ob das so sein soll. Matter Abgang.

0,33 l swing top bottle. A darkest copper in the glass, clear with a nearly three finger head. Sweet malty grainy on the nose. Taste starts more flat, low malt. Later increasing grain, some bitter hop in the background. More than average carbonation. Nothing really special.

Bottle. Clear yellow/gold with a decent head. Aroma of earthy German hops. Minerals. Taste is earthy, bready, grassy, slightly spicy and metallic. Pretty strong carbonation. Very süffig. Ordinary Pils from northern Germany.

Bottle. Brown with a small head. Weak aroma of malts with a hint of roastiness. Taste is mostly malts and a little bit of caramell and gives way to a slightly sour bitterness. Medium carbonation. Yes, it’s very süffig but also watery and boring.
