(bottle, 33cl) Hazy, amber colour with a delicately ruby shine and a short and slightly off-white foamy head. Yeasty, slightly toasted malty and grainy aroma with fruity and resiny hops. Moderately sweet and cautious bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a tame carbonation. Slightly grainy and toasted malty base with a hammy/smokey touch, traces of caramel and slightly fruity hops; sweet and mildly bitter hoppy finish with a mildly smokey tail. The ingredients do not fit together here, imo. 05.I.18

Gusher. Der Gusher bringt bis zu einem Zentimeter große Hopfenstücke aus der Flasche, handwerklich schlecht. Dumpf hopfiger, süßlich rauchiger Beginn. Muffig grasig, dagegen angenehm hefig-fruchtig, steigend bitter, weich bleibend. Süffig, langer Nachhall. Geschmacklich okay, aber dass ich hier auf Hopfen rumkauen muss wirkt dilettantisch. 4/9/10/9/9/9

330ml bottle [6.8% abv as per label]. Murky, dark amber colour with huge, frothy, very slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, off-white head. Smoky, ashy, woody, birch sap aroma, notes of red gooseberry, red currant, a waxy touch of green fruit peel, green wood, tannin, peppery yeasty overtones. Taste is bitter, minimally fruity hoppy, slightly smoky, hints of red fruit, some birch sap, green wood. Not really unbalanced, but untidy, unconnected, unorganised.

From the bottle. Dark amber with a frothy head that quickly fades. Aroma is caramel, toffee, compost. Taste is sweet with light sour inflections. A touch of peppery spice and aluminum foil round out the mix. Body is to the light side, feels watery at times, especially at the outset. Strong notes of roasted caramel, toffee and a light fruitiness dominate the finish, bringing things to a pleasant conclusion. Some flaws but still not bad.

Herb-würziger, moderat hopfig-bitterer Antrunk. Vollmundig, trockene Bitterkeit, die Würzigkeit nimmt ab, die Bitterkeit scheint zuzunehmen. Wenig rauchig. 10/9/7/8/8/7

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle, best before September 2018. Slightly hazy, golden amber with a white head. Sweetish, slightly smoky aroma of sauerkraut, smoked ham and some caramel. Moderately sweet, slightly bitter, moderately smoky taste of caramel, smoked ham, sauerkraut and some nuts, followed by a short, moderately bitter, rather smoky finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Okay!

Bottle at a Tasting. A slightly hazy dark golden beer with a small off-white head. Aroma of soft roasted malt, sweet, hints of bacon. Taste of mild sweet smoked malt, bacon, flat body, nothing special.

Fläschla: Hazy, deep golden with an orangey sheen, small loose off-white head; distinctive nose of herbal hops with a tinge of spruce, rural yeast and pale malt; moderate dryish bitter flavour with a delicate sweetness underneath, relatively light bodied; lingering dry herbal-hoppy finish. Disappointing! Not well rounded...

Euro-Flasche: Cloudy, yellow to orangey coloured, small creamy white head; quite distinctive sweet fruity nose of bananas and peaches, wheat and mild yeast in the background; moderate to solid sweet flavour - not cloying - with a very delicate acidity, oily MF, medium bodied, really soft; lingering sweet-sourish finish with loads of bananas and peaches. A bit on the sweet side, bjt all in al, a good Weizen...
