BillKismet (1407), Seattle, Washington, USA Aug 31, 2008 Golden blonde with very fluffy head. Light graininess in aroma and flavor. Clean tasting. Refreshing, with some encroaching tongues of malt. Slightly, dry bitter and watered finish. DarkElf (2650), La Jolla, California, USA Mar 13, 2005 (500 ml bottle: $1.99 at Hi-Time Wine Cellars in Costa Mesa, CA) Unlike Büble, this Allgäuer beer seems more in line with what pale lagers usually taste like, and that is, not much and not very good. Some lightly sweet and woody maltiness, and a bit of hops, but more than anything, I get quite a bit of cardboard in both the flavor and nose. Light to medium in body. Hazy, medium yellow color. The whitish head fades to a wide ring along the edge of the glass, but leaves no lace. Probably the worst Allgäuer beer, at least I hope so. anders37 (2573), Malmö, Sweden Mar 3, 2005 Bottle: Hazy golden colour. Long lasting white big head. Malty and bready aroma, with some hoppy smell too. Has a thin taste, also a bit sweet and malty. Very little bitterness in the aftertaste. A easy drinking beer. Nothing else WabashMan (738), Noblesville, Indiana, USA Jan 2, 2005 A nice, if not amazing lager. Nice appearance, though a bit pale for my tastes. Decent mouthfeel, though it could be fuller. Slightly sweet in the flavor, and fairly crisp. Not bad...not great. YourDarkLord (1800), Urbana, Illinois, USA Nov 22, 2004 Not a lager fan. Amber body was cloudy and the foamy white head lasted well. There was a sweet malt aroma with s touch of hoppiness. Thin and carbonated in the mouth. Flavor was somehat interesting with notes of sweetness and spice but, overable, a mediocre beer.
