For me one proper and honest beer review is more worth than 100 ticks without any relevant content. It’s all about respect for the beer and the craftmanship behind. I will always try to do my best for a proper rating than playing the number game.

Backlog August 2013. Clear golden body under a stable white head. Aroma is quite typical wheat beer with banana, fruity yeast, clove and wheat – but weaker than the hefe version. Same goes for taste, all the classic flavours but a bit less of it. Sweet with a medium to light body. Decent but not my first choice.

Backlog August 2013 as Yellowtail Pale Ale (4.6% ABV). Clear golden body under a white head. Mild aroma with malt and citric fruits. Taste is quite plain but refreshing, pale malt, citric and grassy hops, moderate bitter. As this was rated in 2013 as a pale ale I wonder if I would have considerate this different with Kölsch on the label?
