(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a blond medium-sized foamy head. Grainy pale malty aroma with strawy accents and a whiff of grassy hops. Moderately sweet and slightly bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a rather tame carbonation. Mildly grainy malty base with shy grassy hoppy spots; sweet-bitter, moderately malty and delicately grassy finish. Very boring but drinkable Lager. 25.II.14

Auch wenn auf der Dose als Produzent die Adresse einer Gasthausbrauerei angegeben ist, so kommt das Bier eindeutig aus der Brauerei Eichbaum, welche hier den immer sparsam eingestellten schweizer Konsumenten eine billige Alternative zu Schneider Weisse und Co bringt. Wie erwartet eine äußerst wässrige Angelegenheit, obwohl die naturtrübe Farbe positives verhoffen lässt. Vom Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis zwar in Ordnung, aber sollte man sich ein gutes Weißbier wünschen, so sollte man davon Abstand nehmen.

Can from Dunnes Stores, Longford [090212]
Light orange yellow, hazy, big frothy white head that dissipates, some lacing
Aroma - Spicy, wheat, clove, bubblegum, fairly aromatic, fairly intense aroma at first that quickly subsides
Taste of fruity pale malts, wheat, soft banana and clove, some apricot, slightly astringent, bit watery, flavour diminishes in the middle
Palate - soft carb, light body, little powdery, a bit sweet. Finish is quite rapid, dab of bitter wheat
Overall - Average hefe, little dull but not too bad

CAN 50CL.

Look: golden, cloudy with an off-white creamy-to-frothy head that is smallish for a wheat beer and the retention is sub-par too.

Aroma: wheat, yeast, fruity, slightly spicy - a bit of everything.

Taste: wheat tartness, CO2, some fruit/sweetness, a touch of light spiciness/bitterness in the finish.



Not bad for an "industrial" hefeweizen.

Bottle: Pours clear, old gold with a short, whispy white head. Grain malt, metallic aroma. Taste is grain, slightly leafy/grassy hops. Dry, slightly bitter finish. Cheap eurolager.....with less skunk. Not terrible.
