5.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 5
Bottled 500ml ABV 5.1% (BZ, BB 08/2011)
Dark nut brown color, small steady off-white head. Dry nutty malty aroma, some caramel, maybe even a bit cardboardish. Medium-bodied. Dry, nutty malty flavor with hoppy bitterness in the finish. Bitter aftertaste. Just "OK".

bottle from Bierzwerg. Clear golden yellow, mid-sized white head. Malty, slightly hoppy with a harsh bitterness. Not my personal favourite. Probably needs a re-rate.

Bottle. Golden, low carbonation, lacing foam. Very fruity base - ripe apples, pears. Fat and sweet, restrained hops. Medium body, mellow mouthfeel.

Bottle (thanx to Joss!): Deep golden, a bit unclear, persistent foamy layer; bisquity-grainy nose with a solid herbal-hoppy background; moderate to solid dryish bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied, a bit fizzy, quite unusual in Franconia; dryish lingering herbal hoppy and delicate bisquity finish. Decent franconian stuff......

Bottled (from bierzwerg wie als Pottensteiner Schlüggla). Sweet malts, saltwater, some grains and quite herbal notes. Flavour is sweet malts, some grains, herbs and rather salty when drinking. Even strangely salty in the flavour.

bottle labelled Pottensteiner Schlüggla, I was told it was the same as this Märzen. Bought at Bierzwerg. Golden colour, mid-sozed white head. Malty nose. Malty, grainy with grassy hops in the finish.

bottle from Bierzwerg. Clear deep brown colour, mid-sized off-white head. Earthy, flavours of caramel, chocolate, raisins. Quite hoppy for a Dunkel, resiny-grassy and, again, earthy. A very interesting and good beer.

Bottle. Deep golden, fine bubbles, nice off-white foam. Light dusty malt nose. Chewy fruity malt base, pils lightfooted, plenty of green grassy hops, with a nice citric finish. Clean and pleasant.

Very carbonated. Give a thick head. Dark chestnut colour. Aroma is minerally, with light toffeeish, breadcrusty notes. The minerals tend to dominate the palate with the dark sugary character in the background. A bit out of balance.

Golden colour. Delicious bready araom with a hint of yeast. The taste is malty, rich with plenty of appetizing dryness. Good balance. One of the better helles in the area.
