Löwenbräu Original

Brewed by Löwenbräu Munich (InBev)
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
Munich, Germany

This is of course enjoyable, but it’s simple and there’s nothing distinct. Crisp malt character, slight hop bitterness in the finish. Very pale & light. Drinkable.

can: Poured a nice yellow colour with lots of carbonation and a frothy white head. Smells fruity and faintly wheaty. Tastes of sweetness and barley on the palate. Finishes very dry with a slight bitter aftertaste. A solid brew, but pretty average.

Nice maltiness to this one, bitter enough too, a tad corny, but quite drinkable, Nice head to it.

Import of choice, have chased it down in Puerto Rico when the original could only be found there in the USA; sad it took decades to import it again to the mainland, its small bubles remind me of a fine chanpagne.

Golden amber in color with thick white head. Slight malt aroma. Bitter malt finish.

Bottle. Hoppy aroma. Nice full-bodied taste, and terrific head that last all the way down.

*Head* - thick, lasting. *Color* - hazy yellow-gold. *Nose* - Bitter middle tones, with a very nice zing. *1st taste* - a bit bitter, but quickly fading. *Middle* - Sweet, crisp, and pleasant. *After* - "Smooth," simple. *Overall* - this is a perfect summer lager, great for football games. It has enough going to keep my interest.

A mild malt aroma, poured golden yellow with ample white head. Malt aroma carries into the initial taste but is replaced with a slightly bitter hop finish. Overall a nice crisp lager.
