Bottle, 5.0%. Good rough aroma. Clear light brown colour. Small off-white head. The flavour is roasted and bready. Slightly watery. Low to medium bitterness. Hint of metal in the finish. All right, I guess, but not very exciting.

Bottle, 5.0%. Good chalky malt aroma, sweetish aroma hop. Clear pale golden colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is vinous but not old tasting. Rather sweet for a pils, but almost balanced by a clean medium bitterness. The sweetness seems to come from a sweet aroma hop, but it probably does not.

Bottle @ The Unholy Trinity Meets Again, Sønderborg. Pours cloudy amber with airy but stable white head. Clear aorma of yeast and hops, with notes of malt. Bitter, hoppy flavour with notes of yeast and malty touches. Estery and slightly acetic aftertaste. Well, drinkable but nothing really inspiring.

Bottle, 5.0%. Mildly vinous and yeasty aroma. Cloudy golden colour. Extremely large rocky white head. Good mild yeasty flavour with a delicate fruitiness. Low bitterness. Clean and pleasant. Would love to try this fresh vom Fass.
