Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts fine malty-spicy, modest sourish. Some grasy notes. Finish well balanced, still malty-grasy. Quite drinkable. Nice!

50cl from bottle @ Moe’s Sportbar, Bamberg. Clear golden yellow colour with a small to medium sized white head. Smells sweetish, a bit malty, slightly hoppy. Tastes nice: some malts, some hops, quite fresh. Easy to drink, nice carbo.

50 cl bottle @ Timo A. Rated on 18.11.2009
Bright appearance with disappearing head. Aroma is stale with bready malt. Flavour is also stale with bready malt, some grain and hints of grassy hops. Palate has just right amount of CO2. Too bready and feels a bit harsh too.
