An unclear orange beer with a nice white head. The aroma is light, but very sweet with notes of caramel and wheat. The flavor is thin but dominated by wheat. A below average hefeweizen.

An orange beer with no head. Both the aroma and flavor are extremely simple: sweet malt. Not bad, just plain boring.

Cloudy light amber color. Smells cellar, mold, apple vinegar. Very bad flavor, undrinkable.

Light amber color. Nice head. White sugar, straw, dust and chemicals aroma. Very ordinary taste, a bit sweet. Overall, bad.

An amber beer with a fine dense white head. The aroma is primarily hoppy and grassy while the flavor is primarily malty.

Orange, greenish shine with big grey yeastlumps floating around; thick, luxurious white head. Nose with chaff, grain. Very clovey, estery smell. Exotic weeds and baby fruitmash. Rather sweetish taste, both orange and banana. Spicey and retronasal even grass. Very light mouthfeel for a Hefe. A bit characterless. One would almost revert to the flunkiness of the Riedenburger (tasted them alongside each other).

Clear golden, slim white head, fed by big-bubbled carbonation. Faint grainy & chaff nose, grassy notes. Surprisingly bitter (German hops) at first, then sliding towards sweet pale malts. Mouthfeel like natural sparkling water (Spa Marie-Henriette for the connoisseurs). Light for its 5.2 ABV. Some bitterness keeps in the aftertaste, slightly metallic. Nothing to go crazy about - Export seldom is.

Pale gold, lively carbonation; fluffy, disparate white head. Very dry, and faint spicey nose; spices as for gingerbread or speculoos. Very herbal, dry and quite some spicey hops in the nose. Palate is more sweet, malty. Mouthfeel is a bit thin, ending sticky. Hoppy flavour in the aftertaste. An above average to good Pilsener with a very intriguing nose.

Gold-amber; totally-clear; broken white head, dissipating slowly. Cookies and fresh spring leaves in the nose, as well as some hops, honey, banana - over-ripe banana that is. Surprisingly fresh taste at the onset, whiff of hopbitterness, receding to a fuller malt sweetness. Some esters swirling around, notably banana. MF is as mineral springwater, refreshing, light texture. Aftertaste hints at laurel/bay leaf. Top-fermenting beers, outside the ubiquitous Weizen, Alt and Kölsch are rare as hens' teeth in Germany. This beer tells from an older tradition, even in Bayern. And it's even a rather nice, albeit quite sweet beer.

Honeyish malt nose. Dark golden, lowish creamy head, fine carbonation. Bready character with spices, like turkish bread or another variant with sesame, very light aromatic hops when exhaling. Medium to full body, hay aftertaste. Thats it for now, maybe more when I drink the other bottle...

Cracker and restrained hop nose. Pale golden, fine pearling carbonation, head stability is so so. Fruity malt foundation balanced well with a good portion aromatic Hallertau on top, grassy and perfumed when exhaling. Exits ever so slowly with malt and a little bit bittering hop in the mouth and aromatic hops in the nose. Fat mouthfeel and a aftertaste a little bit like a perfumed sponge. Very pleasant pils.
