Pale brown and clear. Smells and tastes rather metallic. Fairly plain with light bitterness in the finish. Some malt and a touch of bread.

Bottle, courtesy of Koelschtrinker. Pours almost clear amber. Aroma is citric, lightly floral, but also quite malty. Body is light and refreshing, softly sweet and bitter, with a lively carbonation overtoning citric flavours. Malty but corny off sweetness. Medium palate, rather a bit too heavy for an otherwise light-ish beer. Okay.

0.3 l on tap at the brewpub. Slightly hazy, straw yellow with a medium large, foamy, stable, white head. Slightly sweetish, grassy-spicy and a little fruity aroma of straw, some grains and a touch of citrus. Slightly sweetish, moderately bitter, rather grassy-spicy and slightly fruity taste of lots of straw, grains, some bread and a touch of citrus, followed by a short, moderately bitter, grassy-spicy and minimally metallic finish. Medium-bodied, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Well done!

Hell süß-herber Antrunk. Hellmalzig, starke Getreidenoten. Sehr süffig, Süße und Herbe sind gut aufeinander abgestimmt. Geringe Bitterkeit zum Ende. Rund, gut. 10/10/10/9//10

(bottle, 33cl) Clear, dark amber colour with a beige mid-sized foamy head. Sweet dark malty aroma with hints of caramel, sugar beet and shades of herbal hoppy spice. Sweet and delicately bitter flavour, medium bodied with a quite tame carbonation. Slightly syrupy malty taste with veggie notes of sugar beet and caramel; sweet and slightly sticky, restrained bitter finish. Wouldn´t have ordered a second one. 04.VI.17

(bottle, 33cl) Clear, amber colour with a medium-sized and slightly tanned foamy head. Discreet aroma of mildly citric and grassy hops, draffy malt in the background. Moderately sweet and delicately bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a calm carbonation. Initially sweet malty base with hints of bread and a whiff of toffee, accompanied by rather cautious drying grassy and citric hops; medium-dry sweet-bitter finish with a mildly grassy touch. Disappointing. 25.IV.17

0.3 l on tap at the brewpub at 18°P and 7.8% abv. Minimally hazy, dark amber with a medium large, foamy, very dense, stable, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, minimally grassy-spicy aroma of caramel, dark honey and a touch of nuts. Sweetish-malty taste of caramel, dark honey and a touch of nuts, followed by a short, slightly bitter, moderately grassy-spicy finish. Medium to full body, creamy creamy and a bit effervescent mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Tasty, round and well-made brew, drinks way too easy for that abv. I wondered if Hövels and Wenkers Maibock were about the same but after immediate comparison I dare to say that both are quite different from each other.
