500mll bottle bought from Battersea BF 09 and drunk at home. Clear reddish brown, thin beige head. Slightly bready aroma. Some decent darkish fruit in the mouth, with some decent toffee too. I would imagine on draught that this is really very drinkable. Lovely bit of bite on the finish with carbonation but also hops as well. Good fullness. Very nice dunkel with good fruits and character.

Bottled. A hazy light golden beer with a beige head. The aroma is sweet amlty with light notes of citrus. The flavor is sweet malty with dusty notes of hops, leading to a dry straw finish.

(33cl bottle) Hazy, pale golden colour with a big foamy white head. Fresh herbal and citrus-fruity hoppy nose with a moderate malty sweetness and light yeasty notes in the background. Bitter flavour, light bodied with a spritzy mouthfeel. Malty and slightly yeasty taste with spicy and floral hoppy notes; dry and lasting bitter finish with an aromatic hops character. A very pleasant Zwickel-Pils (27.08.08).

On tap (Klosterbräu, Bergen bei Neuburg/Donau): Pale golden, lazy carbonation,small, white stable lacy head; sweet-malty, a bit grainy nose with a very distinctive floral hoppiness and a certain fruitiness; solid bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; distinctive, quite dry bitter-hoppy finish. Very well crafted, spicy Pils..............

Bottle. Spicy, christmassy and roasted. Beautifu copper-chestnut colouring, golden lacing foam. Very nice chewy fruity and spiced malt base, subtle aromatic hop profile. More akin to a dark Vienna IMO. Medium to full body, fine sparkly mouthfeel. Light roast retronasal. Nice.

Bottle: Copper to amber coloured, smaller off-white head, caramelly and toasted-malty nose with a tinge of coffee; moderate sweet, slightly bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; suppressed traces of hops in the sweetish-malty finish. Not bad, pleasant........

(bottle) Clear, chestnut-brown to light-copper colour with a big and dense off-white foamy head. Moderately sweet and toasty cara-malty nose, slightly nutty and (sour-)doughy with toffee. Mild-sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a medium carbonation. Toast-malty, nutty taste with subtle fruity notes; sweet and slightly bitter, malt-accented finish, again with shy hints of berry-fruits and a touch of chestnuts in the aftertaste. Rather unspectacular but quite quaffable, a good session-beer.

Bottle. Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Fruity citrus flavour. A little floral, but still a bit boring.

Bottle at the Düsseldorf Gathering. Clear, blond body. Very frothy, off-white head. Soapy aroma. Lightly bitter, somewhat fruity flavour.
