Getreidig-bitterer Beginn. Geringe Süße, weiche Herbe, die Bitterkeit nimmt zu. Mit der Zeit angenehm hopfig werdend, leicht erhöhte Karbonisierung, rund. Gelungen. 7/9/10/10/7/9

tgrtnr (3897) reviewed Gersdorfer Ale from Privatbrauerei Glückauf 1 year ago

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5

500 ml bottle. Unclear golden with a big fluffy head. Grapefruit, mango, grassy zesty hops, hints of passion fruit, doughy and grainy. Hoppy zesty bitterness, fruity sweetness. Medium to full bodied, oily texture, lively carbonated, hoppy zesty bitter finish. Quite a good hoppy beer, very well made. Not sure on the style though, could be an IPL, IPA or an Imperial Pilsner…

Bouteille 50 partagée avec Thomas au jardin en dehors de Berlin proposée par son voisin Bernd, merci. BB 04/10/2023.
Couleur brune/cuivre, col crémeux blanc-cassé.
Arôme sur un nez grillé malté, effet grains cuits. L'apport houblonné perce délicatement en rétro-nasal, assez discret et noble.
Palais est malté, caramel, effet toffee, grillé, note céréale, un peu sur la drêche, chocolaté avec un côté pâle.
Caractère caramel qui frôle le côté caramel souvent associer avec ces grosses bières industrielles - ici cela passe encore bien.

Bouteille 50 partagée avec Thomas au jardin en dehors de Berlin proposée par son voisin Bernd, merci. BB 04/07/2023.
Pâle, col blanc crémeux.
Arôme au bouquet frais malté pils classique avec une petite note houblonnée en rétro-nasal - cette dernière est fraiche florale avec une pointe 'honeydew'.
Palais est sur le malté pils avec une note adoucie du grains avec une légère note houblonnée arrivant en retrait - pointe rappelant un effet un peu mielleux et floral en retrait.
