Jul 30, 2008 [Bottle bought in Bamberg and shared with Ali.] Nice goodlooking amber beer with fresh aroflavornotes such as dryness, sweetcaramel, grain, some hops and then nuts, but an okay beer.
bhensonb (2832), Woodland, California, USA
Jul 30, 2008 Bottle from Wine Specialist. Amber color with a decent, coarse white head. Odors of yeast, malt and noble hop. It’s inviting. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Flavor is malt and mostly noble hop. It comes out almost astringently dry. Very tasty. Too complicated to be refreshing. With time it develops a wood character. Nice, refined bitterness in the end.

Jul 9, 2008 Handpulled at several JDW pubs during their recent international beer fest. Dark orange with off-white head. Good cabonation. Is it really cask conditioned or just racked? I’ve tried keller bier in Franconia before and found it much hoppier than this. Still, this is a delightful brew with a pue maltiness that betrays its german origin. A nice restrained bitter finish with more oily hop resin than you would expect from a german beer. Very sessionable.
