Yellow orange brew and some small head. Nose is cloves and banana. Tatses of bread and banana and cloves. Like a Hefe but without the wheaty texture. Creamy. Not bad for cheap purchase from total wine.

Tap at the Dresdner Altmarkt Glüh-Hütte which advertises it heavily. Cola brown body, off-white head. Paler than many dunkels (that aren't from East Germany). Caramelly, simple aroma. Caramelly, simple, smooth taste, dare I say empty, vague cardboard, vague herbal hops, low bitterness. At least not as sweet as some local beers, but quite mediocre.

Not horrific. Nice and cold. One of two cold beers available (Heineshit doesn't count). Yes, I'm a beer slut and will drink and check in anything. 😎 #dasbierterminator
