MoritzF (4019), Ruhrpott, Germany Jun 23, 2006 <i>(bottle, from a gas-station in Eltmann, Franconia)</i> Clear, deep golden to amber colour with a fluffy, slowly lacing white foamy head. Grassy hoppy nose with strawy malt. Bitter and slightly sweet flavour, light body and carbonation. Light-sweet initial malty taste, slightly toasted; medium dry, slightly bitter and grassy hoppy finish with a metallic tinge. Good-looking but unconvincing Franconian Kellerbier brewed with hop-extracts.
omhper (10950), Stockholm, Sweden Aug 15, 2008 Updated: Sep 27, 2008<i>Bottled at the brewpub. </i> Pale brown, small head. Very vague roasty caramel aroma. Medium sweet with rounded mouthfeel. Slightly salty with restrained malt flavours and not much hops, neither aromatic nor bittering. Drinkable but all around restrained. Jukkabro (2468), Tampere, Finland Dec 4, 2007 Light coppery colored, little yellow head. Earthy aroma with some toffee and hops, some lemon and weird berries also here. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is drier with still nice zwickel notes and some toffee, still not so rich flavor. Lemon in aftertaste with some cardboard. Aroma is better than aroma. Geiserich (1555), Vienna, Austria Oct 24, 2007 Bottled: Toffee aroma Amber color. Caramel flavor, sweet, notes of candies, toast and roasted malt. Some fruit notes. Not exiting.
