Commercial Description:
Our gold-yellow Mönchshof Country Beer impresses by its recipe. The finest spicy hops produce its full-bodied aroma. Its aromatic malt flavor comes from noble summer barley. Special proprietary yeast and the soft water, ideal for brewing, from the pristine springs of the Fichtelgebirge add to its traditional export beer character. A real pleasure.

Bottle. Sweet, fruity with just a hint of hops. Yellow clear color with small head. Slight sweet, fruity flavor with a bit of a bitter finish that fades as beer warms. A very good beer - this style of beer is one of my favorites - try it if you can find it.

The appereance is clean and pure, golden yellow with a good head. Nice malty aroma with light traces of hazelnut. The taste is really well balanced, not too bitter, very malty and hoppy. Simply wonderful!!

This has to be one of the best lagers I think I’ve ever had. Not funky in any way, a good clean crisp flavor, not overly dry, but a nice light everything, dryness, hop, malt and crispness. Excellent. Very very refreshing.

50 cl bottle w/ swing-top cap; served in Nastro Azzurro glass. Light gold; OK head. Freshly hoppy aroma w/ slight yeast notes. Pleasantly harmonic and balanced taste w/ plenty of hops and a delicate sweetness in the finish. Soft mouthfeel. Very good drinkability.

Bottled. Pale yellow with rich head. Herbal, spicy hop aroma. Dry, clean, bready and really bitter. Solid and very pilsener-like for a landbier.

Bottle, Dodgy Deli, Cowley Road in Oxford. Pale gold pour, white cap that settles with some lace. Spicy haystack aroma, summery and bright, a touch of yeast. Crisp grassy hop flavor, with a pleasant sticky resin quality. Bright wheaty malt. A really nice surprise.

Not as well distributed as its counterparts. Would that I had picked up more than one. Very nice, dry, pilsner like sharpness in the hops - and they work very well with the malt. Despite having had a handful of landbiers, I have no idea what one is "supposed" to tase like. This is good enough for me.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Very pale gold, with a soft, inviting, cloud-like white head. Smells very sweet, with light cereal. Pretty good mouthfeel: mushy flavours of malt and wheat and a bitter finish to a predominantly sweet beer. I’m confused about Lanbiers - this seemed more like a Helles or a Kolsch - the previous one I sampled was dark brown. I treat this as a quality Pils-type lagered product.
