500ml bottle. Opalescent, dark yellow-ish to orange, golden colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Rather weak, grainy and strawy aroma, light biscuity, pale malty interludes. Taste is fairly bitter hoppy, minimally grainy and strawy pale malty in a very clean mode, a light biscuity, pale malty touch with little residual sweetness as well. Watery texture, smooth and soft palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Very clean, well crafted, well balanced - nice.

12-01-20 // 500ml bottle from mein-biershop.de. Pours clear copper brownish with a light beige fine head. Sweet malty nose with som dried fruit and a hint of medicinal plaster. Soft mouthfeel. Rich malty. Sweeitsh. Some caramel and a little red fruity. Warming up the little fruit notes fade quickly and it’s a strong sweetish bock.

Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass dark, almost black, small head. Malty roasty aroma. Starts strong, intense malty, roasty, some chocolate hints. Finish a bit milde, but still warming-malty. Not bad.

Citrusaroma and a bit of banana. Watery. Dry but citric taste. Not too bad for a light beer, but too thin and watery.
