(Draught at Haus Berg, Helsinki, on 2008-10-15) Golden. Clear. Medium sized white head that lasts for a moment. Sweet and grassy nose. Medium bodied palate with lots of carbonation. Grass, bitterness, sweetness and bit of fruitiness in taste. Bitter aftertaste that does not last long.

32 oz mug in Munich. Not the greatest smell but goes down well with a nice aftertaste...especially with some brats.

Looks like some pee. Some skunk on the nose, and a little bit in the flavor between the malt, but not bad. On par with like Moosehead* Aight, that was a experiment. I wrote it before I even poured the beer. Now, let’s see how I did. Fuckin, I was dead on.

Chewy malts and grain. Quite thick. Pale colour with little head. Lots of depth with some metallics at the back end. Grippy.

Clear yellow with a small head. Large carbonation bubbles. Smooth taste that is slightly bitter. This beer matches the style perfectly.

Fantastic Lager. Light golden, floral yeasty aroma. Very balanced palate that begins with the floral but nicely flows into the semi-hoppy finish. Definitely one of the better widely-available German Lagers.
