Hofbräu Original



Appearance - Miniscule head, very clear dark gold, moderate carbonation. Light lacing. Looks tired.

Smell - Slight skunk present, remainder of the smell is hoppy with a trace of spice.

Taste - This isn't bad at all. Its like a maltier pilsener with maybe a half strength hop bite at the finish.

Mouthfeel - There is more carbonation bite to it than the appearance lets on, which is a good thing for this kind of lager.

Drinkability - This is actually pretty good for a lager. If I want a lighter colored lager and not looking for the more intense bitterness of a real pilsener then I would probably grab one of these. Pretty impressive overall considering the type of beer.
