Bottle (purchased at the Brauerei): Clear golden coloured, visible carbonation, mid-sized, slowly collapsing white head; sweet malty to bisquity nose with a tinge of vegetables; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; a light, but lingering bitterness in the sweet-bisquity finish. O.K., but a bit monotonous.........

Milder Antrunk, die würzige Note ist wirklich unendlich mild und erinnert anfänglich in keinster Weise an einen Bock. Auch im Mittelteil lässt sich die Sorte nicht erkennen, die Würze hat sich nur wenig verstärkt und hat auch noch Konkurenz von einem süßen und klebrigen Ton bekommen, der später etwas bitter wird und eigentlich der kräftigste ist. Im Abgang ist dieses Aroma ebenfalls führen, hintergründig leichte Bockbiertöne. Entäuschend. Ich habe keine Ahnung mit wem ich dieses Bier getauscht habe, trotzdem danke hierfür. Test vom 7.2.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 12,7,10,8,11,7 - 8,30

(bottle) Clear, deep golden colour with a mid-sized, slightly yellow coloured foamy head. Sweet and grainy malt aroma with a moderate touch of smoke and faint hoppy notes. Light-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a well-carbonated and soft mouthfeel. Soft grainy malty base with a moderate but distinctive smoky touch; the smoked flavours get a bit stronger towards the finish, which is furthermore delicately bitter and hoppy finish. Smooth and quaffable smoked beer (12.12.07).
