getrunken in einem Hotel-Restaurant 🏨 am Hauptplatz von Mürzzuschlag, wo es das einzige geöffnete Lokal war.
Die überhebliche Kellnerin 👩‍💼 brachte dieses wirklich schöne Bier 🍺.
Es hat einen schönnen, vollen Körper mit ordentlichen Malznoten, die es verdammt rund und süffig machen. Es passte gut zum Essen und machte die Lokalität genießbar.

0.33l bottle, courtesy of Ogivlado who shared it with Hrabren and me. Hazy paaaale golden body, off-white head, thick. Errr... sewer-like oxidation-driven stale notes with herbal hops in the aroma, oh, and diacetyl. Lean, dry taste, minerally, some weird citric and mayo touches, with some bitterness. This was mildly better than the Helles, but not worth anyone's money. Really hope the beers are better on tap at least.

0.33l bottle, thx Ogi for sharing. Hazy yellow-golden body, tiny off-white head. Buttery, diacetyl-driven aroma, grainy, lightly dusty, bit herbal. Lean, dry, soft taste, diacetyl and some herbal hops. Tastes like a Moravian ležák by a brewer who still didn't get the note that diacetyl is kinda only good if in low amounts, when it boosts drinkability in a well-hopped beer, not in a bloody Helles of any kind.
