Guido Helles but with 6.6 % ABV. Bottle looks good. Beer in the glass with a small head. Starts fine malty-spicy, herbal notes, some cinnamon, some peaches. Mild sweetish touch in the end. Interesting one!

Bottle from the brewery. Looks good. Beer in the glass with a small head. Starts mild, fine malty, spicy. Shy bitter background. Grasy-spicy finish, again with fine spicy notes. Quite drinkable. Nice!

Bottle from the brewery, Looks really good. Beer in the glass with small head. Fine spicy-malty aroma. Starts mild but not washy, fine spicy, some herbal notes. Grasy hints, mild sourish hints. All in all well balanced. Quite drinkable. Intersting one!

330ml bottle. Murky, orange, bright golden colour with huge, frothy, collapsing, white head. Yeasty funky, slightly bretty aroma, dusty overtones, a touch of orange peel. Taste is yeasty spicy, funky, bretty, tart, papery, notes of ammonia, hints of infection. Watery texture, astringent palate, coarse, lively carbonation. Only positive thing about this brew is the bretty touch. Worst beer I had in recent years - maybe that's the Putin context.

Starker Brettbeginn mit überraschender rauchiger Note. Deutliche Herbe, wenig hefig, trocken. Die Herbe steigt noch an, leichte Säure. Ok. 9/6/8/7/7/7

Röstiger, deutlich säuerlicher Beginn, der so sicherlich nicht gewollt ist. Die Säure dominiert vor der an sich starken Röstigkeit, moderat malzig, unrund. Liebe Brauer, reinigt eure Anlage mal richtig, die ständigen Infektionen nerven! 9/6/7/6/7/6

Herber, leicht säuerlicher Beginn. Geringe Hopfigkeit, erhöhte Karbonisierung, minimal bitter. Wenig Ähnlichkeit mit klassischem Hellen, wie mehrere andere Biere auch hier: ist die Säure gewollt oder liegt eine Infektion vor? 9/7/7/8/7/7

330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, faint, redd-ish colour with average to huge, frothy to macropore, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity, pulpy, raspberry aroma, tangy and lactic background, notes of raspberry, a touch of lemon, sauerkraut, raspberry sherbet, weak, funky overtones. Taste is initially tart, lactic, minimally funky and tangy, hints of lemon juice and sauerkraut, later additionally slightly fruity with subtle sweetness, diluted, pulpy and minimally leafy notes of raspberry, a touch of lemon peel; slightly acidly finish. Watery texture, minimally astringent palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Nice composition with quite some subtleties, mild funkiness, overall mild tartness (exempt from the slightly more fierce finish), slightly restricted fruitiness; very refreshing - good!

330ml bottle. Minimally milky, redd-ish, amber colour with average to huge, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, off-white to beige head. Aroma has hints of infection, light funky, bretty flavours, slightly disguised, caramel malty background, fruity overtones with a touch of sweet cherry. Taste is sweet-ish-and-tart-ish, caramel malty and mildly funky, bretty, yeasty, fruity hints of cherry, some caramel, cherry sherbet; slightly dry and tart-ish, fruity, even minimally lacitc finish. Minimally creamy, watery texture, soft and minimally astringent palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Definitely not a Bock in this condition, a felicitous case of infection though - nice.
