Ayinger Jahrhundert

Brewed by Brauerei Aying
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
Aying, Germany

GREAT! Poured a clear gold with a fluffy white thin bubble head. Nose was cereal some light sour fruits, flowers and a little baked bread character. Flavor somewhat tart a little bitter with lots of light fruit. Noticed a little hops here and there. Very f-ing enjoyable.

Pours a clear pale yellow with a white head. Laces well. Aroma is citrusy, but overly sour. Similar flavors. Light-bodied (too light) with a small finish.

Bottle. Golden colour with a white head. Aroma is apple, malt. Flavour is dry, apple, malt, hint of hop, flower. OK beer.

This beer pours a hazy straw color with a massive fluffy white head that eventually goes away some, but never completely. The head eventually becomes "spotty" by that I mean like little clouds on top of the beer in different spots that last till the very bottom, a very weird head retention, and one which I have never seen before. The aroma is pleasant but somewhat faint, good grainy malt notes, and some fruitiness. The flavor is crisp and clean, lightly sweet with malt and slightly citrusy, the major flavor that took me off guard with this one was copper; this tastes very strongly of copper at the back of the mouth, more so than any beer I have ever tasted. This is a pleasure to drink and is very smooth and refreshing without sacrificing very much in flavor, it is in no way complex but it is remarkably different.

It is a really pale gold beer and it has a quickly descending head that leaves some lacing. Light, but nice aroma that was mostly malts. Taste was slightly sweet and only slightly hoppy. But it felt really nice in the mouth and went down quite smoothly. Some yeasty notes in it as well.

Slightly foggy bright golden color with a foamy long lasting head. Full, potent, nose of wheaty malts with some subtle fruity notes. Prominent taste is big fat pale malts with lesser notes of sweat white wine. Finish is white wine-like; sweet with a slight tartness.

Poured a light yellow color with a foamy white head. Aroma was heady with wheat malt. Taste had some floral notes that fininished with an ok bitterness.

Aroma is mild sweet scent with some hints of skunk. Color is a bright yellow gold with very good carbonation and a small tight white head. Taste is sharp, malty and bitter. Starting with a light body crisp. Finish comes in with a sweet malt or grain flavor then a hint of hops and a little bitterness. In the after taste the sweet malt comes out again then it leaves you clean. I’m not a fan of this style but this is a pretty good brew.
