May 23, 2008 (Plastic bottle 100 cl) Clear, pilsener golden with a small, white head. Clean, malty nose with a whiff of floral hops. Medium body, a little low in carbonation - probably due to the plastic bottle. Fairly clean and solid malt profile with a distinct hop kick. Interesting story behind the style - I must confess that "Obergärig Hell" did confuse me for a while. 100508

Feb 8, 2007 rbsxg05, bottled. wow, that must be the longest commercial description in history, and to think that it’s written about a koelsch. pale and spritzy yet lifeless. faint citric sourness, no bitterness to speak of

Feb 13, 2006 1l brown plastic bottle and draught in Cactus Creek , Pretoria, South Africa. Pours pale yellow slightly hazy with a moderate white head. Light malt aroma with some faint grassy hops. Sweetish malt , light bread flavour with a touch of hop bitterness. Watery texture and very light body. Dry finish with light hop bitterness. Easy drinker and quite refreshing under the hot SA sun

Feb 10, 2006 Quite disappointing after the hefeweizen. Pale gold, with a very pungent skunky malt aroma - like an aussie macro. More of the sweet malt coming through on the tasting, with a chewy aftertaste. Maybe it doesn’t like leaving africa?
