Bottle. Golden colour with a big white head. Grainy light hop aroma and a light sweet malty light bitter taste. Medium body and a sweet finish.

Medium, white creamy, long lasting head on the deep golden brew. Light herb and perfume nose. Nice light hops taste - crisp and refreshing. Actually makes more a Springbeer and it is suprisingly not heavy at all.

Sweet grain and honey nose, gold color, big fluffy head. Thin, smooth malt with a light hop bitter that build on itself through the glass. Pure and classy.

Bottled. Clear golden colour with a frothy and lacey head. Weak malty and slightly floral hoppy aroma. Malty, sweet taste ending in a medium dry hoppy finish. Good mouthfeel, medium-bodied with just the right amount of carbonation. I liked it.

Peacharoma. Full bodied, malty, peachy flavor. Some hops come through, especially in the aftertaste. Butterscotch. Nice beer, alcoholic for its modest ABV.

An orange beer with a huge though disappering beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of grass and fresh hops. The flavor is sweet caramel with an OK bitter hoppy end. An OK, but average beer.

Dark/golden. A pretty average dortmunder. Some fruit hidden in the palate. Nice balance between sweetness and bitterness. However nothing special.

Golden coloured. Malty aroma with notes of hops. Mild and pleasant flavour. Rather sweet.
