HusarenTrunk Mengersen’sche Dampfbrauerei. Antique gold ale with soft puff of white stuff. Insect segment lacing turns aborigine. Bread with orange zest, fresh lemon slice, cashew, Spanish peanut, filbert, beet greens and Swiss chard. Citrus continues on palate with addition of grapefruit zest, lemon rising, and orange zest receding. Incredibly crafted beer gives you the bitterness with a mineral lift, then alights on the palate with a butterfly kiss of sweetness and grain. Long legs of joyous beer flavor!

Pineapple-colored with fungiform springing. Toad back lacing. Delightfully clean lemon and straw, light pretzel white mushroom, tangerine pith, and caper-berry nose.
Lime shines on entry, phyllo, croissant flake, dehydrated green bean, winter wheat, lemon, lemon pith and orange peel. Hard to deny this lager’s greatness. A joy to drink.

Gorgeous amber with orange evokes fine scotch. Tortoise shell lacing materializes. Orange bread and toasted sesame, Marcona almond, plantain and butternut squash pencil in the autumnal details. Poppyseed, toasty malt, allspice, acorn squash bread and a touch of ginger spice. Forgot what a seasonal treat this is!

Ebullient coiffure. White and high. Recoiling sectioned serpent turns caption ball lacing. Doughy, almost peirogi nose shows orange and tangerine piths, crispy breadstick, lightest white pepper, raw peanut, and caramelized shallots. Grape leaves, brown sugar sanding, salsify, baby corn and pumpernickel.

Strong head builder; just under cappuccino. Arch and aqueduct lacing. Dark chocolate ganache and espresso notes veil a burnt black cherry and dark rye bread nose. Black coffee and bittersweet chocolate grip the palate, with burnt pecan edges. A creaminess suggests hazelnut oil, cola bean, tonka, carob, and mildly, ginger snap. Easy to drink stout that doesn’t give in to superlative extremes. Lovely beer!

Cloudy and grey to red-brown Amber through the pour. Leesy-teasy. This voluminous lady sprung a shock white, unexpectedly pure pate. Cinnamon baked apple and caramel are soft suggestions initially. Barley and malt cameo as themselves with a whole jar of raw honey and ginger snap crumbles. These aromas are deceptive. She’s not that sweet, really. She snaps between a mineral texture and a pretzel bun with a Hawaiian bread middle. There is lingering almond butter after a briny lemon and a citrus tea that drags it all back. There is a decidedly German depth to the beer, which embraces a baked bread quality, but this is lean and sleek, sidestepping the heartburn of some styles. Hazelnut oil, almond flower, pecan, and sunflower seed persist in a lees-y postlude. #brauereimaxliebinger #unfiltered #zeppelin #germanbeerday #deutschland #Deutschebier #bier #beer #lees #strangebrew #gettheLedout #Hindenbeerg — 6 years ago

Überquell Bambule.Pilsener. Hurricane white head walls. Quick dissipation. Fine to moderate mousse. Cosmos residue. Fireworks lacing shimmery-fizzling in oily skies. Gum eraser, pencil eraser, cinnamon oil sensorily, chives, ; all two dimensional. Lemon pound cake meets lemon marmalade on toast, but cellophane-thin. Cinnamon apple perhaps? Digest this within the aspect/scope of a Pilsner and you are following. Lemon and tangerine entertain scant traces of grapefruit, wheat germ, and lemon-raisin bread. Onion flakes that rain hop dust. The unctuous quality of this beer gives it a textural might! Puts some fleisch on those bones.

Green gold with an ethereal arc. Champagne streamers and finest mousse. Jack Frost has nothing on this lacing. Indelibly icing. Briny nose with honey notes, golden apple, frozen plum, pie crust, arugula, beeswax, and wheat germ. Glorious hoppyness shows lemon peel, pink and white wildflower sprays ultimately superseded by a bitterness that strikes just the right tempo. There is a natural mineral impression of gold flake, pine nut, and resinous oils abound. The lacing is glued. Such complexity in the hop arrangement here. Parsley, dried apricot, tarragon, sprouts, hay, bay and even a light and zesty jalapeño. Fantastische!

Beige and fluffy pour turned porous and sparse with just a cat’s paw print remaining. Really ready for Oktoberfest, so jumping the pond early this year. Subtle cardamom, and pine notes atop orange peel and honey bread on oak leaves waft from the dark, reddish-amber of this dunkel. Cherry pit, lemon tea, rye, and applewood with a dusting of aspirin that yields to a yeast and honey over cigarette paper. Mineral elements suggest silver and nickel. The finish has a malty, pecan nuttiness throughout. #bier #beer #germanbeerday #deutschebier #deutschland #dunkel #flensburger #flensburgerdunkel #darklager #lager — 6 years ago
