Car from InterSpar Split. Hazy pale yellow body. Sweetish aroma, brown sugar, sweet green citrus touches. Lean taste, sweetish, lemon-lime, sweetish but mainly inoffensive, no huge beer notes, or at least hop notes, some gum candy notes perhaps. Dunno. At a loss for words. Okay radler.
330 ml bottle into pint glass, best before 10/2020. Pours very hazy golden amber color with a 2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Thick foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big lemon juice/pulp, lime, citrus peel/zest, wheat, cracker, and white bread dough; with lighter notes of banana, bubblegum, clove, wood, herbal, floral, grass, pepper, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of lemon juice, pale/wheat malts; and light-moderate fruity/spicy yeast, earthy hop notes; with big strength. Taste of big lemon juice/pulp, lime, citrus peel/zest, wheat, cracker, and white bread dough; with lighter notes of banana, bubblegum, clove, wood, herbal, floral, grass, pepper, and yeast earthiness. Light herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness; and citrus/wheat tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy citrus juice/pulp/peel/zest, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, banana, bubblegum, clove, wood, herbal, floral, grass, pepper, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of lemon juice, pale/wheat malts; and light-moderate fruity/spicy yeast, earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness and tart/tangy fruit balance; with no astringent flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitter/tart/spiciness and carbonation. Medium-plus carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and fairly sticky/acidic/tangy balanced mouthfeel that is fantastic. Overall this is an outstadning NA radler style. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of lemon juice, pale/wheat malts; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the mellowly bitter/spicy/tart/drying finish. Very flavorful and not watery at all. Perfectly balanced between weissbier and citrus juice flavors; solid hops presence/balance. Minimal residual sweetness with crisp dryness. A highly enjoyable offering and amazing style example. Best NA beer I have had.
Bottle. Blonde, hazy. Pleasant lemonaroma. Distant malt and hops with lots of lemonade. Pleasant summer refresher. Glue-like finish.
Süffiger, süß-säuerlicher Beginn. Erfrischend fruchtig, natürlich, Zitronenlimonade. Mittellanger Abgang. Erfrischend, schnell vergessen. 8/7/9/7/9/7
50cl bottle. A hazy pale golden colour, small white head. Aroma of sweet lemonade, lime and sugar. Taste of sweet citrus lemonade, sugar, some grapefruit.
Bottle. Cloudy pale yellow, violent carbonation, big fluffy head. Lemonade aroma. Light moppy malt, light body, sweet lemonade otherwise. Light paper retronasal.
Sampled from 0.5 l can from local 'toom', best before January 2019. Cloudy, pale yellow with a medium large, frothy, quickly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, slightly sourish, quite fruity and a bit artificial aroma of lemonade, some lemon juice and a touch of lime. Quite sweet, a little sourish, rather fruity and just a bit artificial taste of mainly lemonade with hints of lemon juice and lime, followed by a short, a little tart and slightly fizzy finish. Thin body, minimally astringent and gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Decent Radler, nothing which justifies such a comparatively high price though.
Bottle. Murky pale yellow color with fizzy white head that goes down quickly. Aroma is lemonade, zezty, not too artificial, with a touch of beeriness. Taste is lemonade, zezty, some slight beery maltiness detectable. Refreshing mineralic mouthfeel with fizzy carbonation. Decent lemonade, as most Naturradlers are, and as such, far superior to any classic Radler.
500 ml from bottle. Lime juice, lemonade, some beer. Sour with some sweetness. Lively carbonated, light bodied, dry sweetish finish. Refreshing Naturradler.
