Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a clear yellow with a white head. Clean malt aroma. Light body, malty with a vague edge of cardboard. Rather hoppy finish. Not bad for a low alcohol. 031009

Bottle 50cl.
Clear medium yellow orange color with a average, frothy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, white to off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, hay, vegetable, light to moderate hoppy, metalic. Flavor is light moderate sweet and acrid malt bitter with a average to long duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft, finish feel is light metalic. [20091003]

Bottle, 2.8%. OK citric aroma. Clear yellow colour, OK white head. Thin mouthfeel and flavour. Quite rough bitterness. Boring, but not bad considering ABV.

It’s golden with a white head and the aroma has notes of malt, straw and cabbage. The slightly sweet flavor has notes of flower, light malt and cabbage. Considering that this is a light, it could be much worse...

Vegue vegetable-like aroma. Vegetable-bitter flavor, not overwhelming in any way, but enough to be a bit annoying. Thin.

One of these ended up in a six pack of regular Bitburger I bought recently. Pours a light gold color I could definitely taste a hint of maltiness, but otherwise didn’t think too much of this beer. If I want low ABV beer in the future, I’ll definitely stick to Berliner Kindle Weisse.

The aroma’s a bit skunky, hiding some sweet malt and floral & herbal hopping. Light-bodied, it’s got a similar taste to Bitburger’s Pils, perhaps a bit sweeter, more lightly hopped, and not as refreshing. Neither "low-calorie" nor "low-alcohol" (2.8% abv) is a selling point for me, so I’ll pass on this in the future.

Straw color with a fluffy white head. Light malt and light sharp hops aroma. Somewhat fizzy in feel. Water, but alot of grainy malt. Floral hops flavor with a decent underlying bite. A decent pils, light or not. Losses a bit as it warm, but this was meant to be cold.
