Bottle, 5.4% at LCRBM08. Malty aroma, hint of honey. Clear yellow colour, no head. Good malty flavour, hint of citrus in the finish. Slightly sweet. Good mouthfeel.

Bottled (from beerangel.de). Golden colour, mediumsized fluffy/foamy head. Aroma is malts, saltwater, quite doughy and also some slight floral hops and grass. Flavour is saltwatery, doughy as well as floral hops and mild buttery notes. Clean, but quite boring. Quite sticky palate, compared to many other Dortmunder/Helles ones.

Gold colour. The aroma has some strawlike character, a little bit of vegetal sulphur and light pale malts. Rather sticky palate, with vague herbal/fruity hop character. The malts are a little too syrupy for my taste and the hop character is not bright enough to overcome this.

Bottled (Beerangel, BB 10/2009). Clear yellow color, decent white head. Grassy-straw nose with slightly metallic notes. Palate is quite watery. Mostly apple fruity maltyness with grassy hopping. Quick finish. Maybe ice cold at summer, but otherwise useless.
