Ayinger Frühlingsbier

Brewed by Brauerei Aying
Style: Zwickel/Keller/Landbier
Aying, Germany

Tapped. Minimal white head, some lace. Very blond yellow, slightly cloudy. Aromas are yeasty malts with spicy fruitness. Odour has almost faint lambic-like yeasty and malty notes. Also some bitterness in the finish. Flavor is a bit sour and has sweeter malt elements in the finish. Lively carbonation and medium body. Very well balanced and delicious beer with faint but diverse aromas and pleasant palate. I’ve always liked Ayinger beers but this was still a positive surprise.

(Tap @ Mallaskukko) "White", i.e. light hazy yellow with a white head. Sweet aroma has grass and citrus. Soft wheaty flavor, ever so slight grassy liquorice. Soft finish, slightly dry fruityness.

Draught @Punavuoren Ahven, Helsinki
Hazy light yellow color, lace. Small creamy white head. Fruity aroma. Light to medium bodied. Bitter and hoppy taste but well-balanced with carbonation. Aftertaste is slightly sweet and oily. Afterwards comes some bitterness. Very refreshing, like Hoegaarden.

in the bottle, thanks to hurrisnow. a chill-hazed straw colored gold with a thin white head. very grainy with a slight sulphur to the nose. crisp, clean in body. this is a warm-weather beer. it has a really nice yeasty grainy taste. it reminds me of chewing on barley husks. I would best describe it as a maibock without the bock. the finish has lemons.

[bottle] Lemony, popcorn sulfury aroma with some herbal spiciness. Foggy dark yellow with a rocky white top that drops to a thin cover. Fairly sweet base malt quickly complimented by a pungent, herbal bitterness that is almost woody like a Belgian ale. Fruity notes come in as the beer warms and may be from hops. Less sulfur in the flavour than the aroma, but it is still an obvious component. Medium body, medium carbonation, woody bitterness lingers a bit in the finish, but makes the beer refreshing.

bottled. slightly hazy yellow with a lasting head. aroma of herbal tea with a hint of wheat. plenty of menthol and butterscotch in the flavour, soft texture, quite pleasant

Bottle - thanks to DerDoppelBock Pale, yellow body with a white frothy head. The head disappears rather fastly and almost totally. Aroma of hops, soap. Nice bitter flavour becoming more bitter in the end. Definitely not that brilliant, but definitely a nice German beer.
