Bottled. Very pale yellow, rich airy head. Light grassy nose. Light bodied with vague bready malt and a fair bit of water. Well hopped, so the finish has grass and good bitterness. Fresh and rather flavourful low alcohol beer.

Süß-herber Antrunk, weich, sehr süfig. Besonderheiten besitzt das Bier nicht, esahndelt sich um ein simples süffiges Lager mit bitterem Abgang. In Ordnnung aber schnell vergessen. 7/8/8/9/12/8

Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy pale orange. Phenolic banana aroma. Sweet with rounded spritzy mouthfeel, despite a relatively low carbonation. Flavour of caramelly banana cake. Fruity with lots of cloves and massive banana flavour.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear brownish amber, small head. Lightly soapy, perfumy roasty malt aroma. Pleasant fresh grassy hops provides spice to a vital, rounded mid-sized body. Some vague smoke adds complexity. Long salty bitterness. Modest, but very good.

Bottled. A light golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of straw, and so is the flavor, though added a hint of butter.

(bottle) Clear, yellow colour with a short foamy white head, which is rapidly gone. Sweet and slightly artificial citrus fruity nose, that leaves not much room, but for a shy malty touch. Sweet flavour, thin bodied and crispy mf. Shy malty, citrus-fruity taste; sweet and tart finish. One of the weaker Radlers (17.02.08).
