Schlüssel Gold

Yields a clear golden color with a big, pillowy head.

Smells of dried garden herbs, grass and lighter lime zest, tied together by whole grain bread rind and orange peel.

The beer drinks easy and refreshing with a well accentuated, bubbly carbonation among a light and well balanced body.

Tastes of dry and spicy noble hops, dried wood and hay together with a whiff of crackers and caramel among soothing straw. Offers a short glimpse of oranges, toned down by bread and toffee, with an ongoing dryness underneath. Finishes with bitter turning herbs, subtle lime and lighter, sweet caramel.

This, to me, is a well done Pilsener which got pretty much nothing to do with a session pale ale. That being said, I still consider this a small revolution for a traditional Alt beer brewery.
