Bottled 330ml. -Courtesy of and shared with Marko, thanks! Clear yellow coloured, huge airy white head, mild ginger in the nose. Also quite strong ginger presence with light bready and rice notes. Watery of course, again ginger in the finish.

Again, thanks Riba! Poured a misty golden body with pretty much no head, strange. Slightly fizzy. Quite sweet aroma, some ok cloves and bananas mixing with a strange note of canned corn. The taste is, well, not far from more of the same. The clove & banana notes are there, and I should be liking it, but it’s too sweet, and with the aftertaste making it pretty much come to an all too abrupt halt, it just feels slightly lacking. Has potential, the best of the three Turbines we’ve had, but something’s still not right...

Again, thanks Riba! This is basically a textbook Helles for the better part. Golden body with a slightly too small head. Malty, grainy aroma. Completely ordinary, if pretty flawless taste. Grainy maltiness, pollen, no proper hop presence, maybe some very vague herbal notes... extremely mild carroty touch. In any case, better than your average commercial pale lager, but still quite unexciting.

Wow, first raters in 3 years, thanks Riba! Shared with ogivlado. Poured a fizzy yellow body with light chill haze, White head. Ginger aroma, slightly vegetabley, sweetish. Empty, light taste, the thin base "rice beer" is just a blank slate, the ginger presence isn’t well integrated in my opinion, feels diluted and, because of no burn, it triggers a "fake" alarm, but who knows... Light tartness. There are far, far better ginger beers. Sorry, not a good one. Far, faaaar from it.

Bottle. Pours dark amber with off white faomy head that dissipates fast, honey aroma, low carbonation thin body, sweetish taste with a hint of honey, abrupt finish. A bit thin bit nice for a warm evening.

This beer pours a clear pale golden color with a medium thin and fizzy white head that burns away quickly to a film. Spotty lacing on the glass. The aroma is slightly skunked with grainy malt in the background. Light body with flavors of sweet malt, mild grassy hops and a touch of fruit. The finish is short and grainy. Slightly below average overall.

On draught at Zeughauskeller. This beer pours a clear amber color with a medium foamy off-white head that recedes slowly. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of grainy malt and mild hops. Light body with flavors of roasted malt, caramel and hops. The finish is bready malt with a sweet caramel aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.

Bottled, thanks Bov! Hazy amber, firm head. Dry with mild buttery caramel covered in a thin layer of grassy hops. Medium bodied with firm, well rounded mouthfeel. Mild and nicely drinkable with balanced bitterness. Pleasant.
