Bottle. Clear amber/dark orange sporting a respectable white head. Aroma of grains, malts and herbal and floral hops. Taste of bread, grains, caramel, herbs and red fruits. Slightly sweet, vaguely fruity and mildly spicy. Moderate bitterness. Medium to strong carbonation. Süffig and all-around decent.

Gessner Premium Pils, Flasche von Edeka, Meuschau (im Direktvergleich mit Bitburger). - Goldgelb, glasklar. - In der Nase etwas stumpfe, schmalspurige Zitronenschale und süßliches helles Malz. - Im Antrunk mild zitronige, luftige Herbe, die noch Raum für leichtes helles Malz mit zarter Süße und Anklängen an Honig läßt. Milder rezent, schlank, leicht trocken. Im Abgang angenehme herbale und mild zitronige Hopfung ohne sortentypische knackige Herbe. - Brauchbares Pilsener, angenehm gehopft und rund aber deutlich milder und malzsüßer als das Bitburger.

6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 6
Klar mørk amber med offwhite tykk topp som varer. Aroma; karamell, smørbukk, malt, overmoden banan, noe eik/røyk. Smak; Malt, karamell, toffee, banan, humle, eik. Grei Smak, men likevel kjedelig til å ha så mange smaker som ikke helt kommer til sin rett. Dårlig balanse smaksmessig. Bierbar alkopole - Berlin.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Bottle, I believe from a Getränkemarkt in Leipzig, drunk watching the first ep of Foundation. Clear red amber with a tall head of beauty. Nose is malty, spicy dried hay. The flavor is a bit astringent, cara-red type of flavor I don't prefer, hay and earthy herbal bitterness. Dry; just alright.
