Bottle@Bishops Arms, Umeå. Yellowish golden colour with a small white foamy head. Aroma is grainy, some sweet malts, mild floral and grassy tones with mild wood too. Flavour is toasted malts, some mild nutty tones with a bit grains and some herbal and grassy tones to it. Nice mellow bitterness in the finish and aftertaste, though the sweet maltiness also stays for quite a while.

Had this at Karmelieten Biergärten, Straubing, Sunday 14th April 2024. Pours hazy mid brown with an off white head. A touch of spice on the nose, a little bready also. In the mouth there is a pleasant tang, cereal and again breadiness comes back. Nice mouthfeel, nice beer.

Tap at... Schneider Weisses Brauhaus with Jonas and Ursula. Clear brownish-amber body, off-white head. Sweet caramelly aroma, some light figs, perfumey, sourish. Sweetish, empty taste, light dark malt, trace herbal hops, light toothrot, too long on the tap I'd guess.

Tap at Schneider. Chestnut, slightly cloudy. Fart and old leather shoes, dusty. Taste is front heavy sparkly, burned something, malt, soapy oily aftertaste. Weird.
