Zwieseler “Dampfbier“, vom Faß auf dem Berliner Bierfestival. - Schönes Kupferrot, klar. - In der Nase milde Malzsüße, überreife Banane, fein hopfenwürziger Hopfen. - Antrunk satt karamelmalzig mit dezenter bonbonartiger Restsüße, fein ausbalanciert durch zarte fruchtige Säure und reife Banane. Etwas zu stark rezent, trotz schöner Süße eher schlank. Im Abgang allermildeste fruchtige Herbe. - Auf originelle Weise malzsüß, auf Dauer arg dünn aber rund und süffig. Schön!

16th April 2018. Monthly Shrewsbury Beer Exchange in Chez Sophie. I brought this 500ml bottle; BB 16th July 2018, obtained from Beers of Europe. Clean and clear golden body, white topping. Semi-sweet malts rule the nose and taste, drying aftertaste though. Simple but pleasant beer, weak aroma let it down a little.

500ml bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, April '18, courtesy of Jeremy. Thanks Jeremy. Pours a crystal clear gold, thin white head. Aroma is light corn, pale malt. General consensus is it's a little drying, clean with a gentle sweetness. Nice start with the night.
