"Reutberger Kloster-Hell", Flasche von der Getränketanke, Kochel am See. - Satt goldgelb, klar. - In der Nase recht kernige fruchtige Herbe, breitflächige Zitrusfrucht und etwas Fruchtgummi, eingebettet in solides, zart toastiges helles Malz mit Anklängen an Butter und Waldhonig. - Antrunk satt hellmalzig, trotz leiser Honignote erfreulich wenig süß und von solider orangenfruchtiger und herbaler Hopfung dominiert. Milder rezent, eher vollmundig, tief. Im Abgang sortentypisch milde doch aromatische Herbe. - Stattliches, von solider Hopfung geprägtes aber keineswegs zu bitteres Helles. Sehr schön. (21.4.2025.)
