Bottle. Clear amber-copper color with beige head that is rather large-bubbled. Aroma is caramel and earthy hops, bready, classic Festbier aroma. Taste is caramel malts, bready, a bit rustic, medium sweet, but not too sweet. Silky to foamy mouthfeel with soft carbonation. A standard Franconian Festbier, doesn't do anything wrong.

Keg at GBBF 2018. Low key yeasty aroma. Slightly cloudy gold. Fluffy white head. Some bitterness with a sweet core. Medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Long finish. More interesting than a bog standard lager but that's not saying much.

Bottle. Hazy golden-orange color with creamy white head. Aroma is tangerines, grassy, floral, bready yeasts. Taste is bready yeasts, grassy, floral, nice sticky Mandarina flavors in the back and aftertaste. Soft mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Quite a nice hoppy Kellerbier, Green Monk style (though not quite as sticky).
