Thanks bierkoning, Edo!
Golden, light amber color, decent white head. A honeyish malty and grainy nose. Medium-bodied. Good malty backbone. Finish and aftertaste is hoppy with hints of metal. No diacetyl in my bottle. Solid Bavarian helles-zwickel.

Draft. An orange-amber beer with a thick creamy off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of caramel and straw. The flavor is sweet with light notes of caramel, leading to a finish with light notes of both hops and bitterness. The mouthfeel was quite flat. Served too cold for my liking - early in the day.

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a lazing white head. The aroma is powerfully wheaty as well as light notes of banana. The flavor is sweet malty combined with strong notes of wheat as well as a light fruityness especially of banana and oranges, leading to a dry and slightly wheaty end with hints of acidity, that makes it fresh.

(bottle) Hazy, light orange colour with a big and dense foamy white head. Moderately sweet, slightly fruity (banana) wheat-malty nose with a touch of vanilla and clovy spice. Sweet and slightly sour flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation, at least for a Hefeweizen. Soft grainy, moderately wheaty taste; rather slim, slightly wheaty and quite phenolic (cloves, vanilla), spicy finish. Who needs a Weizen in Franconia ? At a growing number of breweries one has to ask where the Weizens are actually brewed.

(draught at the brewpub & bottle at home) Clear, amber colour with a short, slightly off-white foamy head. Sweet, well-balanced fruity malty and herbal hoppy nose. Malt-accented taste with a nice burnt malt and hoppy bitterness, light to medium bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel; moderately dry, bitter-sweet finish with a good dose of herbal hops. Quaffable Franconian Lager.

On tap at the brewpub: Deep golden to light amber coloured, mid-sized, quite stable fluffy off-white head; delicate aromatic herbal-hoppy nose, underpinned by sweet-fruity malt ("english"); quite dry (malty-) bitter flavour, rather light bodied; light sweetish-malty finish with a hoppy touch. Good franconian beer...........

(On tap) Beautiful, clear, dark amber with a nice, off-white head. Malty, lightly caramelish aroma. Medium body with pleasant, lightly caramalized malt accents - perhaps even a touch of honey? Distinct hoppy finish. Nice one. 101106
