Reddish-brown colour. Very toasty aroma - quite appetizing with a hint of chocolate. Metallic on the palate a bit, with hints of chocolate and light toastiness. Complex, nice lager.

Ceramic mug. Incredibly appetizing toasty, breadcrusty aroma. Very tasty country lager with a smooth malt character and a toasty accent towards the off-dry finish.

Golden-brown. Hoppy liquid bread aroma. Toasty and complex with lemony hops....you’d think those wouldn’t work together but they did here. Tasty example.

Draught@Abseits. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is earth, malts, rather yeast and also has some mild mouldy hints. Flavour is very citrusy and then it has quite much the same notes as in the aroma.

Draught: Seems to be deep golden, medium-sized, lacy white head, solid sweet-malty and delicate hoppy nose; solid sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied, smooth; juicy malt, indeed, in the lingering sweet-bitter finish. Knoblach is good........

Bottle (Vroni’s Bamberg) Light amber coloured, thin, lasting off-white firm head; fruity (honey, plums) and malty aroma, combined with some herbal hoppiness, some smoky or wooden notes ?!?!? Soft, sweetish, fruity beginning; mild bitter-sweet flavour; dry, bitter and "barrique-like" aftertaste, long lasting. A very good and very unusual example of a franconian Lager !

Bottled. A dark golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and caramel as well as light notes of hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and cardboard, and the body is thin. Boring. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is primarily buttery, and so is the flavor with an underlying note of malt.
