33cl bottle from Brauliebe Hirz. Hazy brown body, off-white. Cellary apple cider profile like the last two today, a bit maltier though, the rye showing up a little bit. Lean, dry taste, creamy, bit floral, low esters, rye malt notes, very low spice, light light herbal hoppy touches. Not great, but solid enough I guess.

0.33 l bottle thanks to Marko who brought it from Prague, shared with Ogi and him. Unclear amber, small off-white head. Aroma is malt, rye and red apple. Flavour is sweet, grainy, fruity, some cooked apple and candy, also some spicy malts and toast for the balance. Finishes quite sweet. Minimal bitterness, coming mostly from the toasty malts.

0.33l bottle from Brauliebe Hirz. Lightly hazy golden body, off-white head. Corky-cellary apple cider aroma, light butter. Lean, dry taste, apple juice and cellary butter, juicy tartness. What.... Lower carbonation. Sadly, not great, the least attractive of the lot, the fermentation profile / maybe the yeast not having performed well.

0.33 l bottle thanks to Marko who brought it from Prague, shared with Ogi and him. Clear golden, small off-white head. Aroma is fruity and yeasty, estery, red apple, slightly cheesy. Also lemony, zesty, there are grainy notes but also hints of sour cabbage. Smooth, light body, moderate carbonation, finishes quite sweet.

0.5l bottle from the Brauliebe Hirz store by the brewery! Opened with a ginormous pop but didn't gush. Shared with Hrabren and Ogi. In general crystal clear dark amber with an off-white head, unless you pour the yeast in - we did both. Huge apple juice/cider aroma, remarkably so, lightly cellary, vague banana and stone fruit. The taste continues with the apple cider undertones, but there's some creamy wheaty / emmery I guess maltiness and floral notes. Smooth, flat, sweetish, but ending bit abruptly dry. Maybe lightest of traces of oxidation. Unusual, but tasty in a weird way - kinda what I want from an atypical beer of this kind.

0.5l bottle from Brauliebe Hirz, shared with Gurthnar. Very dark brown body, chestnut, creamy beige head. Odd corky, bit chocolatey aroma, sharp. Bit tart, perfumey taste, odd dried berry notes, vaguely spicy, mildly creamy. Dunno, the least impressive from Apostelbräu in my book.
