From bottle. Lots of floral hops, elderflower, grassy notes, stonefruit, crafty hops, grain, hay, straw, mild zesty citrussy notes. Mild dry bitterness, floral fruity sweetness. Medium bodied, oily texture, lively carbonated, mild dry fruity floral grassy finish. Lovely!

Tasting at Phill's, bottle
(some details got lost) Hazy pale blond colour. It has some interesting grassy and spicy hop note, I prefer some more bitterness, but it's a solid example.

Poured from 650mL bottle (pkg 06.09.22). Hazy gold with small white head. Grassy floral hops, mild straw malt, hint of pepper. More toward the pilsner style than hefe. Decent, but not much complexity.

500ml @ Phill's. Appearance: cloudy dirty straw with a white head. Aroma: interesting flowery hops, a bit dirty, some European hops. Taste: along the same lines, some weird bitterness, malty, finishes with usual European hops bitterness. Overall: ok, a bit too bitter for my taste, though.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of hazy, biscuity malt, and a touch of grassy hops. Flavour is crisp and nicely biting, with grassy hops, biscuity malt, and some straw. Crisp, fairly dry, and clean. It's decent.

Pale gold, slight haze, full body, and a really nice malt character. Low bitterness, but it's nicely balanced.

500mL bottle, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma is a bit vegetal, with crisp biscuity malt and a little grass. Flavour is crisp and grassy, with crisp biscuity malt, grassiness and herbal notes. Grassy, crisp, but maybe a touch of vegetal notes. It's alright.

Helle, trübe Farbe. Cremiger Schaum. Deutliche Zitrus- und leicht florale Noten. Gute Hopfung. Weiches Mundgefühl. Gut. Der Name „Hefe-Pils“ ist etwas verwirrend, Keller- oder Zwickl-Pils wäre treffender und gustiöser. Der Wortwitz Hefe-Pils / Hefepilz ist nur semigelungen. Da denkt man eher daran, dass man da dagegen eine Salbe aus der Apotheke holen muss und nicht an ein schmackhaftes Bier.

Brown with a creamy, off-white head. Aroma of toasted grains and toffee. Taste is mildly bitter with caramel sweet undertones. A bit empty at the end, could use some more hops. Medium-bodied, mild carbonation, mildly watery texture. Middle of the road Dunkles.
