Draft. An amber beer with a thick collapsing head. The aroma is sweet and grainy with a light note of yeast. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel, leading to an OK bitter hoppy finish with a hint of metal. The body is a bit thin.

(On tap) Beautiful, clear fully golden with a creamy, off-white head. Somewhat unclean, malty and fruity nose - reminds me of Danish microbrewed ales!! Medium body, light caramel notes with a rather hoppy finish. 071106

<i>Bottled at Akkurat, Stockholm. </i> Clear dep golden, rocky head. Grassy nose with plenty of papery/buttetry malt. Very dray and soft with spicy/grass hops and filling mouthfeel. Despite the richness of grassy hops it’s dominated by buttery dense malt. Very pleasant and quenching.

Golden-bronze hue; BIG malt nose. If you are an aspiring brewer and want to learn how to mash a beer, go to Bavaria. Fully malt, brilliantly extracted flavours. So pure a maltiness that there is little analogy to be made. You can almost taste the individual grains. It is a very simple beer on the surface but to get flavours so pure and so clean is a task that 99.9% of brewers worldwide could not execute. Fantastic.

Draught at the brauhaus. Golden colour with a big white head. Light caramel malt, grass aroma and taste. Medium body with a sweet dry finish.
