0.5l bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who got it in Germany (thanks!). Poured a pale yellow body with a thick white small head that went away slowly. Eggy and grainy sharp nose, not too enjoyable. The taste is slightly flowery and polleny, vaguely sweet, vaguely bitter, grainy. Interesting in a way, subdued but even though my descriptors are generic, it’s different than most and quite drinkable and enjoyable. Nothing great, but good.

0.5l bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who got it in Germany (thanks!). Poured a murky brown-ochre body with a medium sized thick white head that went away slowly. Nice sticky malty, lactic, yeasty nose, banana, some bubblegum, chalk and spice. weetish and sticyk. The taste is yeasty too, chewed up bubblegum, grain and banana are there, some glue and light berbal notes. The soft mouthfeel, quite nice, saves it from the notes of bubblegum.

0.5 L bottle shared with Brenn79. Aroma is lemony; like lemon meringue pie. Pours a hazy yellow with a small head and decent lace. Taste is very sweet with no bitterness. Sugary, even. Tastes like a kid made some lemonade with way too much sugar and then poured it into some weak beer. Highly carbonated with a medium body. Gets to be almost sickingly sweet towards the end. This is only the second shandy I’ve ever had, and I think I prefer Leinenkugel’s.

Swingtop bottle per picture. Pours pretty black with a large, foamy tan head. Smells like a schwarzbier. Light sweet black/burnt malt. Medium body with foamy carbonation. Tastes like dark roast malt, but it’s only mildly burnt. Hardly any hop. It’s certainly ok, but it’s not at all tantalizing. Prefer Kostritzer version.

Bottle. Sweet banana, peach, clove and toffee malt aroma. Cloudy orange brown color with nice head. Sweet banana, clove, apricot, and light toffee malt flavor. Not bad - clove flavor strong but not much malt.

Bottle. Sweet creamy malt and light grass hops aroma. Golden yellow color with moderate head and light effervescence. Syrupy sweet barley malt and mildly bitter grass hops flavor. A bit too sweet.

Bottle. Sweet creamy barley malt aroma with light grass hops. Golden yellow color with nice head. Light creamy malt flavor with moderately bitter grass/tin finish. Decent but pretty standard.

Bottle. Light flowery raspberry aroma. Clear golden yellow color with moderate head. Lightly sweet malt with a light raspberry and grass hops finish. Light but interesting beer - very unique beer.

Bottle. Sweet banana, apricot, clove and toffee malt - very nice. Cloudy yellowish brown color with giant off white head. Sweet banana and toffee malt with a bitter clove finish. Body on the light side. Nice beer.

500 ml swing top bottle, purchased at the Beer Authority in Lake City (Seattle) Washington. 3 A notched on the label. Pour is hazed yellow orange with a pure white two inch head which is quite lasting. As it eventually falls, nice lacing is left behind. Aroma of sugary caramel malt as though it is being cooked, along with a bright sweet cherry and a hint of grainy earthiness under that. Clean enough, though perhaps a touch on the sweet side for my liking. Taste is the nose, with the cherry jumping out in front, turning towards the sugar sweet caramel malt, and finisihing with the grain earthiness. The earthiness is a bit muddled, almost oxidized tasting, but not quite. Palate is medium to thin, a bit oily and the aftertaste introuduces some synthetic artificial sweetner. Nice enough, just too sweet for my tastes.
