Ayinger Jahrhundert

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

500 ml bottle. Finland. Flawless German lager. High quality brew. Wish more lagers were like this.

.5L bottle - Shared w/ SkyCop32. Picked up at Maruhn Getränke in Darmstadt. Pours a clear golden yellow color. Aromas of grass, cheerios, and a touch of flowers. Flavor is kinda sweet to start, citrusy finish with some hop notes.

Had this with oldrtybastrd. This pours golden yellow and fresh crisp look in the glass. This has some aromas of fruits and cereal. This is still just typical.

Crushed with Jakebra. Looks like gonorrhea pee. Smells like nast. Flavor is terrible. Judging by how highly rated this is, Im hoping I just got a bad bottle.

330ml Bottle (Gushed like a MoFo; Lost 1/3 of the Beer): Aroma of fruit, berries, malts, light floral hops, grains, and slight honey. Poured yellow/gold in color with a tiny white head. Clear. Not sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet. Tastes of fruit, honey, malts, floral hops, and grains. Light body. Lightly dry texture. Average carbonation. Lightly sweet, grainy finish.

Bottle. A clear, pale golden beer with a decent white head. Pale malt and fruits in the aroma. A vague hint of anise as well? Sweet and slightly grainy in the mouth, quite fruity and with some hops. Would like more, but it’s appropriate for the style. It almost feel a bit candy-like. Medium body and pleasant carbonation. Short finish with fruityness and a candy-like sweetness. A decent beer, but also rather boring. Quaffable though. (080829)

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.
