Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at home Wednesday 12th August 2026, the day of the eclipse, though not quite a total eclipse here in Germany. We had a sort of Kedgeree for tea tonight, not quite a true Kedgeree but near enough. This beer was a little ordinary a touch on the sweet side and playing safe with the bitterness. Sweet orange, a little resinous and with additional citrus throughout, it's absolutely fine but it's just to safe and not pushing any boundaries for me, in fact everything could be dialed up a bit more. Score: 7.0

Trockener, hell herber Hopfenbeginn mit schwachen Fruchtnoten. Minimal Pfirsich, sehr trocken bleibend, wenig hefig. Leichte Süße zum Ende, etwas getreidig, langer aber milder Ausklang. 9/7/8/8/11/8

Can picked up from Craftbeershop Parchim Germany and consumed at home Friday 27th March 2026, we had Fishcakes and Rocket Salad with Pear, Walnuts and Parmesan. Pours yellow with a mid/large white head, the nose is vibrant and pushy, slight tropical notes but certainly on the tangy side, so perhaps Cape Gooseberry, a little mango, juicy but also super hoppy. This really doesn't seem like a German beer, I don't mean to be harsh but wow it's very out there. V.good even though not my favourite style. Score 7.5

Can from Craftbeershop, Parchim, Germany sat in Frank at Freising P&R after a Greek meal in Freising Wednesday 18th March 2026. Pours hazy gold with an intense bitterness, large white head, citrus, pithy lemon. There's a streaky sweetness, very hoppy, great stuff. Score 7.8
