650ml bottle - hmmmm, a French name for a German beer style, ok, then - and heh, upon further inspection, 'gold-digger' is an appropriate enough name for an offering from this mining-themed brewery.
This beer pours a not quite clear, dark orange-brick brown colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly beige head, which leaves some stag's head lace in places around the glass as it evenly recedes.
It smells of bready and doughy wheat malt, damp banana chips, a lesser caramel sweetness, ethereal ashy notes, muddled earthy spices, and some faint weedy and herbal noble hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, a now lesser edgy wheaty cereal character, banana pudding, white pepper and clove spice, ephemeral free-range smoke, and a further leafy, weedy, and herbal green hop bitterness.
The carbonation is quite pervasive in its coddling frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and mostly smooth, with a minor cold airy creaminess persisting from the get-go. It finishes off-dry, the gently smoked mixed malt, banana, and spices carrying us right on out of the shaky at best prenuptial agreement.
Overall, this is a decent version of the style, with lots of flavours that would be found in the better versions from der Vaterland, if not the exact complexity therein. Whatever, this is quite easy to put back, with thoughts of the titular harlots falling down a rickety shaft, or something.
