0,5 l bottle from kappldav123. Thanks a lot mate! BB 13.05.26. Clear darker golden in the glass with a nearly two finger white foamy head. Looks good. Grainy aroma, some caramel. Taste starts with dry grainy bitterness, malt and some caramel in the second row. Mid carbonated. Long lasting aftertaste. Nice bavarian standard stuff.

0,5 l bottle from kappldav123. Thanks a lot! A darker golden, nearly clear with a small one finger white head in the glass. Caramel and apple fruity aroma. Taste has caramel and increasing intensive bitterness. Edge to buttery. Metallic hints. Below average carbonation. Can not really convince.

Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a nice head. Mild malty-spicy aroma. Starts mild, malty, light sweetish. Grasy hints, some herbs. Light yeasty touch. Finish well balanced. Quite drinkable. Not bad!
