Bottle from Dortmunder. Thanks! Golden color, malty aroma with a hint of butter. Almost sweetish, malty flavor with a touch of hops and some more butter. Not bad, but unexciting.

Bottle, thanks to Dortmunder. Honey color, sugary peachy aroma. Sweet, almost sugary flavor. Very light hop character with just a bit of floweriness. Thin to medium bodied. A decent balance, the alcoho, is hardly noticed. Likeable, drinkable, but could have more character.

Slight apricotaroma, that comes back in the flavor. Flavor also has caramel and a hint of chocolate. Thin to medium bodied. Low on hops, but there is some malt. Tropical fruit in the aftertaste. Thanks Dortmunder

Swing top bottle, bought at De Bierkoning Amsterdam. Golden color. Grassy, chalky aroma. Grassy, citric, flowery and somewhat dusty flavor. Limited hopbitterness, the citrus character prevails.

Bottle. Pours clear very pale straw with airy but stable white head. Clear aroma of yeast and hops, with mild malty notes. Bitter, hoppy flavour with notes of yeast and mild malty jints. Bitter, hoppy aftertaste with estery and acidic touches. Reasonable but there is no doubt that it is hopfengestopft.

Bottle, 4.5%. Clear shiny yellow colour. Big stable chalk white head. The flavour is faintly bready at first, followed by a clean and spicy hop note. A sort of funny hop flavour, but pleasant enough.

Bottle, 5.0%. Good malty/dusty aroma. Clear golden colour. Small frothy white head. The flavour is nicely malty, almost like Helles, but with the bitterness of a pils, rough but clean.
