Found in a Vienna supermarket, the standard brown half liter bottle sports a multi-colored label featuring a painting of what is presumably the town of Grieskirchen below the name. No useful ingredient information. Best before 7/6/07, I opened it on 11/27/06.

Pours a clear slightly orange gold under a one finger white head that settles quite quickly to film and collar without any contour or much more than a spot or two of lace. The nose is very malty, with a touch of citrus and straw. The mouth is light and quite prickly. Lots and lots of barley in the taste, with a hint of tangerine. The hops are mild, but definitely present, espresso dry and bitter. They climax just after the swallow, then fade slowly back into the malt. Not great, but certainly not bad at all.
