Ingredients: Water, Barley Malt, Hops & Hop extract.

This beer is our speciality. In 1894 Spaten became the first brewery in Munich to produce this brand of light lager. Golden in color with a well-balanced hop-flavor. The full rounded body is a superb balance between hops and a malty sweetness.

Draft in tall lager cylinder, at the Landmark Inn, Northbrook, IL. First time I’ve spotted this number. Good fluffy head with nice lacing. The smell is light on malty beeriness, but there is a nice spicy hop chracter. Taste is to match, quite crisp, and I think I can tell from the lighter hop load that it’s a Munich style. Refreshing beer, light on maltiness, but that just helps invite a second round.

This is the beer that started my appreciation for the taste of finer beers. So its got a special place in my heart. Its aroma is nice and sweet and pleasant. It taste light and malty, with a sweet almost champagney taste.

Ah yes. Bottle. Not too bad actually. Bready, and malty. Crisp, and for someone like me who isn’t a huge fan of lagers, this one is one I’d drink.

On tap at the Spaten house, Munich. Good, crisp Lager. Refreshing, yellow, good balance and quenching qualities.

Aroma is light with only slight traces of sweet maltyness and faint traces of hops. Looks are pretty average but the head last a little longer and the beer has more lacings then normal, so in fact appearance is above average. The taste is very good. It has a sweet malty taste with not very much bitterness, and is pleasantly drinkable – even in large quantities. Mouth feel is again pleasant and smooth, no way as bitter as some north German lagers. Overall a superb lager that stands head and shoulder above the vast crowd of European lagers.

Noticable bready malt sweetness to begin. Soft on the palate with medium carbonation. Dry grassy hops to finish. Slight graininess lingers after the finish. Overall well balanced and easy to drink. Comes across nicely for a lager type beer.

The aroma is lighly hoppish with a pour that is light golden and a fizzy white head. Light hoppish flavor with some malt sweetness and a light finish.
