375mL bottle, pours an opaque bright golden orange with a medium white head. Nose has plenty of bright apricots, moderate funk, and gentle citric acidity. Flavour is much the same, with plenty of tart apricot, moderate funk, moderate acidity, and citrus. Nice incorporation of the apricot. Very good as usual from the master blender.

Really nice spot right in the centre of the apparently German-speaking town of Bolzano. They had 4 beers on tap (all German style), available in 0.3 or 0.5L pours (or 0.2L depending on the style). Decent beers but nothing special; friendly service. Definitely worth a stop when passing through Bolzano.
FYI, if you're driving, parking isn't the easiest -- best to find a paid parking lot somewhere in the centre of town and walk over.

On tap at Hopfen & Co, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma has toasted bready malt, some herbal notes, and some chestnuts. Flavour is on-point, with bready malt, herbaceous notes, and toasted chestnuts. Always nice to try this style done well. Good.

On tap at Hopfen & Co, pours a hazy dull golden orange with a medium white head. Aroma has clove, gentle orange rind, and some gentle esters. Flavour is dry, with plenty of esters, mild astringency, and clove. Not as bright as a superior weizen or estery, but decent enough.

On tap at Hopfen & Co, pours a clear dark amber with a small white head. Aroma has nice toasted chestnuts, bready malt, and toasted caramel. Flavour is malty and dry, with lots of bready malt and dry toasted nuts. Dry and malty but not much depth. Meh.

On tap at Hopfen & Co, pours a clear golden yellow with a large white head. Aroma is nice and fresh, with herbaceous notes, grass, and straw. Flavour is very clean and fresh, with bright herbaceous notes, grassy hops, and straw. Bright and fresh, well-hopped, and super clean. Very good.
