| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 3, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy pilsener golden with almost no head. A very, very soft sweetish character and a somewhat flat and unclean palate. Wonder if this is oxidized or something, it appears odd. Not unpleasant as such, just very unusual. 210101 Otje (668), Leiden, Netherlands

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 1, 2005 Clear pale golden colour with a good sized white head. Aroma is yeasty, bready, malty, barnyardy. Taste is grassy, malty, hoppy with a light bitter aftertaste. Quite highly carbonated with light mouthfeel which is a bit watery at the finish. Not bad really. Joshw (14), Germany
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 25, 2005 A nice pour with a nice white head, a yeasty nose with hints of sweet malt. The consistency is nice, a bit metalic and salty, with not enough malt or hops. It started nicely, but finished crappy! Not a reccomendation! Doggythedog (1601), Split, Croatia
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 16, 2005 Natural and aromatic..... well, from my last experience with Altenmünster lagers, I expected it to be fake and smelly. But, it wasn’t. Still wasn’t too good. Not for the price. Apparently, this was the most expensive beer among the five beers a friend brought from Germany. More expensive than, say, Paulaner Dunkelweizen. Not worth it. It might be because of the bottles, but all Altenmünster beers seem to be far overpriced. Anyway, to the beer. Pale golden, fluffy white head. Aromatic ? Not really. The nose was far from intensive, but kind of pleasant, malt and lemon. Taste ? Again, lemon, and malt, with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Not much body. After I left it to get a bit warmer, something happened. It started smelling malty, but in a disgusting way. I guess those are the "strange emanations" an earlier rater mentioned. The same thing reflected in the taste. So, pleasant while fresh and cold, but not really stable. I drank better. HermanW (631), Coevorden, Netherlands

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 1, 2004 A vile cheesy, pea soup is growing underneath the hop-covered haystack...A nonetheless pleasant hop bitterness manages to thwart the oddness and is lifted by a creamy malt tonus...Working out in the sun can be rejuvenating, but after a while strange emanations start to appear...
