500ml bottle. Hazy orangey golden colour with average, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, white head. Fruity and spicy aroma with an ester touch, banana, apple, pear, laurel, a peppery touch, a tart note. Taste is initially tart, yeasty, minimally biting/prickling peppery, later with mealy banana undertones, muggy wheaty, slightly alcoholic; prickling carbonation with a sourish effect. Slightly unbalanced.

bottle from Bierzwerg. How unusal for the German beer scene, a top-fermented beer with only 3.8% abv. Looks lovely in the glass, chestnut-golden colour with a dense and creamy white head. Hoppy aroma with a touch of citrus fruit. Light-bodied yet full of flavour: good and clean malty base with hints of dark malts and a touch of lemony hops. Very, very nice.

Pours yellow. Aroma us sweet bread and fruit with some floral earthy and spicy hop character. Slightly spicy and bitter end. Soft and friendly mouthfeel. Nice enough.
