Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 2A). Can 50 cl - Batch L19 1 09:11. AROMA: mild cereal-sweet aroma with hints of floral notes. APPEARANCE: pale gold color and translucent. medium-thin white head with low retention. TASTE: moderate malty sweetness with cereal notes. medium-low bitterness with an almost dry and somewhat bitter finish. PALATE: medium-light body with low carbonation. OVERALL: a standard pale lager a bit under-carbonated.

Bought it at "ADEG Fuschlberger", Gosau, AT

draught at Prilisauer Wien-Hütteldorf. Hazy golden with a creamy white head. Intensive malty start, not too sweet, hints of honey, a yeasty touch adds some fruit. Lingering hoppy finish. Smooth and velvety on the palate.

on tap at Bier Fest Wien, shared with Saeglopur. yellow very cloudy color. medium big off-white head. smells yeasty, hay, some flower notes, some sweetness, grains. full body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes citric, grainy, some sweetness, honey notes, light grass, candy. citric bitter - sweet finish. decent, a bit on the bitter sweet side though (which is not really my thing).

Draught at 6. Wiener Bierfest, shared by Werckmeister, thanks!

Full, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes sweet, quite alcoholic, smooth, bready, fruity.

Nice one. Smooth and creamy, with nice fruit notes and a quite well hidden alcohol. Good example of a pale Doppelbock.

Aroma of hay, flowers, grass, bread, some sweet malts.

Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a soft carbonation.

Very nice. Enjoyable floral, bready notes and quite a lot of citric hops. The taste isn’t fully on par with the really nice nose though. Overall one of my favourite Zwickels from Austria.
