Gösser Beer (Export)

Brewed by Gösser (Brau Union)
Style: Pale Lager
Leoben, Austria

Draft. Comes to me in a shaker without much head. Aroma is pretty light with just a faint amount of sweet grain and corn. Flavor is nicely and subtly hoppy with a touch of lemon. The sweeteness adds a nice touch. Best beer in the world? Hmm...not too shabby though.

crystal clear pale gold with a medium sized white head that quickly diminishes. bland pale malt and corn flakes aroma. light bodied and crisp palate. flavors of grainy malts and a quick hop bite in the finish. moderately sweet. not real great. the dunkel is much better.

Bottle (330ml). Poured a pale golden colour with a dense foamy, white head which was mostly lasting. Aroma was of straw, honey, grassy hops (light), stale bread and to make it truly awful some wet cardboard. Flavor was quite metallic, with some honey, very mild lemon and a faint grassy hop bitterness. Light bodied with fizzy carbonation, watery texture, metallic mouthfeel and a short finish.

Nice straw coloured quaffing lager. Quite highly carbonated, in fact I overflowed the glass whilst pouring it. Crystal clear with a slightly spicy malty nose. Aroma was nothing special, but very pleasant. Palate was thinnish, but I enjoyed this beer nonetheless. Not bad for a green bottle import.

Pours nice gold colour good head,carb is okay not over done.Aroma is malty typical of bottom fermented beers,flavour a bit salty ruins the bitterness and hops takes away the tang,could of been the aluminium tin,

Bottled 50cl. It pours a yellow beer with a white head. Lively carbonation. The nose is sweet with hints of rosemary, honey and hay. The taste is surprisingly good. Some rosemary and honey combine with caramel and sorbet. Bready. Very malty and smooth. The palate is rather nice. Light to medium bodied. Slightly bitter grassy finish with a hint of mint. Rerate: My initial rating describes this beer really well actually! Hints of crackers in the taste. A great pale lager. Underrated in my opinion.

The aroma was mostly Saaz hops and a bit of malt. The beer was not skunked despite the green bottle. Some light hop spice was notable as well as a skinch of caramel. The beer poured into the glass crystal clear golden straw with nearly no head at all. The head which was present was white. The flavor was nicely malty with a depth of malt character which was well done, but bordering on slighly sweet. The hop bittering was good and kept the malt in check causing the finish to come to dry. Only a light spiciness was attributable to hop flavor. The body was medium with a low level of carbonation. A tasty beer, but nothing too exciting. 12 ounce green bottle.

Bottle. Pours a golden blond. Nice sturdy white head. Aroma is grassy with flowery hops and light citrus. Hints of buttery biscuit as well. Thankfully not skunked. Taste is grassy and hoppy with light citrus, tea leaves and bready malts. This actually cut through some rather "ripe" Stilton that I was eating. Very tasty otherwise and quenching as well. Body is light-medium with some carbonation fizziness to it. Ends with more floral hops, grass and soft bready malts. Not nearly as bad as expected.
