Head gone in seconds; looks as a glass filled with pressed orange. Citrus, pineapple, orange, mango, other fruit. Sweet, all kinds of fruit, but the oats are remarkably prominent: ryebread, some (German?) herb/spice, often added to bread. Old cloth. And then of course, some more fruit. Chewy, fruit mash. Carbonisation not very apparent, inscrutable. Oat(rye)milk with pressed orange. A.A. breakfast.

Draught Vieled orangeish yellow beer with a good, very dense & fine snowwhite head, lacey. All of the ingredients immediately obvious: mineral, lime, chili. Dry piment powder. Lime and backthroat immediately capsaicine burn, spreading gradually unto the lips. Some lactic acid; unfortunately after a few sips all that remains is the chili. Light body, not very carbonated. As to the rest: see above. "Velen zijn geroepen, weinigen uitverkoren" when it comes to the dosing of chili. Missed.

Draught Small, snowwhite head over fully hazy darker yellow beer. Dried pine branches, dried kitchen herbs, straw, citruspeel. Orangeconcentrate. Quite fruity onset with a dry, cardboard-y bitter finish. After some time, the dry straw flavour intensifies, making it bone dry. Medium carbonation at best; very slick, hopoily. Quite good!

Draught Huge, dense, snowwhite head over fully hazy yellow beer; shards of lace. Fresh lupulin aroma's, citrus, ureum... Very intense, straw, jute. Bitterish - fruity. Bitter-sweet citrus, roasted pineapple, lime, grapefruit. Again lupulin festival, resin. Sharpish, very hopoily, good carbonation. Quite pleasing IPA.

Sampled @ Tucher Bräu am Opernhaus Small, stable and lacey head over foxy amber beer. Caramel, lightly coloured malts, faintly diary. Dry, bit piney and leafy, but again quite some caramel. Feels rather well-bodied; slick, not very carbonated. Initially quite interesting, but in the end it levels average.

Sampled @ Tucher Bräu am Opernhaus Bit lace, if not much head over orangeish yellow beer. Some yeast, malts, and a spritzy, citrussy aroma overlying. Bit chewing gum; again something citrussy, pale malts, white bread. Good carbonation, slick; taste goes away quickly but not abruptly. Quite decent.

Draught @ Tucher Bräu am Opernhaus Dense, medium yellowish head over faintly veiled orange-amber beer. Fresh malts, partly toasted, and lots of yeastfeatures. Sweet malts, little toast in the taste, but yeast quite prominent again. Rather full MF, the yeast helping, as well as the stable head. Soft carbonation, however; Not bad at all. Wonder if it's still made in a real Tucher brewery?

Sampled @ the Elsenwang brewpub. Big thanks to Helena and Hübert for driving us here! Thick-set, creamy, fluffy head over almost black beer. Nutty, ashy, bit roast; sweet dried fruit, overripe bananapeel. Liquorice, ashes, sweet roast, and finally some (C) hops too. Pretty well bodied, viscous but nowhere cloying, whilst some of the other steroid Gusswerk brews are a bit. Despite the strength, quite drinkable!

Sampled @ the Elsenwang brewpub. Big thanks to Helena and Hübert for driving us here! Small if lacey whitish head over dull ochre beer. Islay malt a mile out, as well as some citrus notes creeping through. Again Islay malt in the mouth, whisky, and again a tad citrus/orange. Very syrupy feel, medium to good carbonation which lightens the MF a bit. Any Islay malt aficionado would be satisfied. The beer was nicknamed hidden whisky beer, but I utterly fail to understand the "hidden"...

Sampled @ the Elsenwang brewpub. Big thanks to Helena and Hübert for driving us here! Head fast gone; red-shot brown beer. Liqueurish, red fruit. Or better: red fruitliqueur. Alcohol obvious in the nose. Again syrupy-liqueurish. Bitter grapes, but decent amount of sugar too, albeit masked. Sticky, viscous, syrupy. Not very carbonated. I suppose nobody quaffs Doppelbock, but this is more liqueur than beer.
