Veltins V+ Energy 

Brewed by Brauerei C.& A. Veltins
Style: Spice/Herb/Vegetable
Meschede-Grevenstein, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

Bottled. A light yellow beer with a thin lazing white head. The aroma is dominated by guarana and artificial sweetener - what happens here? And the flavor is like a guarana sodapop - no trace of beer.

33 cL bottle. Pours pale yellow with a fully diminished white head. Fruity berry aroma, light citric note. Flavour is sweet and citric berry. Ends sweet berry fruity towards just plain sugarish and slight citric. Red bull in disguise.

Nice deep blue bottle. Pale weak greenish and yellow colour. Sweet Red Bull aroma. Thin mouthfeel. The flavour is like sweet artificial Red Bull.....I´d rather have a Red Bull...... Very sweet finish. Thanks yespr for this German Red Bull "beer".

Bottle. [thank you, Yespr]
[at Yeprs tuesday tasting]
Pours almost colour-less, just some turquise-green monstrosity with practically no head. Aroma is disgusting sports soda sweetness - lots of Guarana. Sticky sweet, truly gross.

Bottle. [Courtesy of yespr, thanks buddy] Small fizzy white head that mostly diminished. Fair display of lacework. Clear sparkling body with a pale yellow colour. Aroma of Red bull, herbal, sweet malt. Synthetic sweet sugary feel as well. Light bodied with an average carbonation. Light sweet flavour. Light sweet finishes with a hint of acidic.

Can. Sweet bubblegum aroma, obvious redbull like taste. The beer flavor cannot be noticed in any way, it’s just red bull with loads of carbonation and a little bit of alcohol.

Bottled. The bottle the same like the other V+ beers. This one is the worst of these. Tastes terrible chemical and like chewing gum. It’s not easy to empty this small bottle.

Bottle at home. The things we do for new ratings. I can only imagine what this will taste like. Here I go... Crystal clear. Very citrusy, Red Bull nose. (a troubling sign.) Some fruit tastes - maybe. Really artificial, horrible. Loud sugar tastes, no texture or nuance whatsoever. This took about 3 seconds to produce and is laughable. This from Germany?!? Sad sad.
