Draught, 4.7% at the brewpub. Good bready aroma, citric aroma hops. Cloudy dark yellow colour. Stable plasticky white head, giving the frothy mouthfeel I do not particularly like. The flavour is OK bready. Medium bitterness, rough in an OK way. Hint of soft fruit in the finish.

Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy amber, rich creamy head.Fruity and salty with rich buttery malt. Behind the soft mouthfeel lies a sparkling mouthfeel. Sweet and solid, well sized and dominated by fruit ant and butter. Very low bitterness.

On tap at the brewpub. Near black with a big, frothy tan head. Aroma of treacly sweet malts with some dark fruit and toastiness. Flavour had toffee, coffee and a sour edge, that reminded me of Batemans mild, before a short bitter finish. Good stuff.

On tap at the brewpub. Golden in colour with a big, foamy white head. Aroma of hay, bready malts and a hint of yeastiness. Flavour had savoury, grainy malt, with a herbal edge and some grassy hops. Drinkable.

swing top bottle (500ml).-courtesy of and shared with Doggythedog (thanks!)
My second Austrian chilli beer. Cloudy yellow/pale orange coloured (similar to Hanf), medium sized white head, dusty, light peppery nose. Bready, light malty and hoppy with sharp chili taste. Burning lingering notes in the throat and long lasting aftertaste. Uhhh, I love chilli. Decent chilli beer, but I still prefer Dombräu Chili.

Cloudy yellow/orange coloured, medium to big white head, yeasty spicy nose. Acidic hanf taste with notes of yeast, hops and spices. Slight herbal touch in the finish. The beer was two weeks over BBE but still drinkable.

0.5 l fliptop bottle Doggythedog shared with me, so thanks! 4,5% ABV. BB date is tomorrow, so let’s see. Poured nice murky brown body with bigger ocher head. Very nice coffee and caramel aroma with some wood (may be nuts) and a bit of cocoa. Flavor wasn’t unfortunately so nice, caramel and coffee malt based, bit watery with odd sourness which only partially comes from unpasteurized hops. Shorter finish in that sourish way. Fine enough, but it’s surely better fresh and I’ll definitely rerate it once at the brewpub.

0.5l bottle brought from the brewpub by a friend (huge thanks, Ivana!) Poured a murky, very dark red. Big, lasting off white head. Quite nice. Smelled like... chocolate with hazelnuts and/or peanuts. A little caramel, maybe some coffee. The taste got a little acidic (bb date tomorrow, but hey, it traveled a lot and all), hazelnuts and peanut butter again. Fine, delicate maltiness. Light and quite likable even if it’s not at its peak.

An tap at the brewpub, several times in 2006. Rich smoked malt, slightly less smoky than in Bamberg, but very drinkable. great balance, very drinkable. Great with the sauer braten or the bratwurst.

Drank several times at the brewpub in 2006. The best lager I had in Austria. An amber, Vienna-type beer, with rich amber malt flavor but a good deal of hopping to back it up. Rich and flavorful yet refreshing and very drinkable. Top-rate stuff.
