Hello, beer tasters! 🍻 😎 🍻

How are you today? #beersaturday is going on, I'm sitting in front of my computer, counting tokens. I think there are a few more than last week, but their value is about the same, which means that the price on the market has fallen a little. At least it seems to me. I'm not a crypto-finance expert... I'm more into beer and music.
And if I get any more tokens out of it, I think it's just wonderful :) 😎

It's raining outside and I'm not going anywhere until I've tried these two German cans of beer.
Anyway, the design is nothing to brag about, but we'll see what the contents are. Oh yes, definitely, I haven't had a beer all week, since the last beersaturday!

As well as tasting beer, I've been practicing a bit in Photoshop so I don't forget it. Let's just say that what you see in the first picture above is a quick collage :)

🍻 😎 🍻

Grantler Hell

Brewed by commercial brewery Schlossbrauerei, Herrngiersdorf, Germany.
Can, 0.5 l, alcohol 4.9% ABV. Helles style, which means it is/is supposed to be a typical Bavarian lager (certified), with a smooth grainy malty flavor and a soft, dry finish.
Also intended for export to the wide world.

The beer is clear yellow in color and has quite a lot of head, which is slowly releasing. The first sip goes down the throat, I taste a shy hop bitterness, the sweetness of the malt is also slightly noticeable. I don't find any other aromas or flavors, the hoppy feeling quickly disappears.
No extremes, neither good nor bad, an average lager, maybe I could even say it's boring ...

Now I need a beer meme to put me in a good mood ...

🍻 😎 🍻

Herrnbräu Zwickl

Brewed by commercial brewery Herrnbräu , Ingolstadt, Bavaria, Germany. Can, 0.5 l, alcohol 5% ABV. It's a Keller-style beer which means that is young, unfiltered, and unpasteurized, traditional German style. If it's also Zwickelbier, it should be a little less bitter. Okay.

The beer is orange in color, I expected it to be more cloudy because it is unfiltered, with little head. The first sip goes down the throat and it's true, the hop bitterness is more discreet but the maltiness is not too noticeable either. The hay flavor appears at the end and lingers for a while.

Again, nothing pronounced, I found it better than the previous beer but still average. Of course, I would drink it if I had no choice. But if I had, I would have tried something else.
I wouldn't put it in the fridge, for guests, to offer it to someone. If nothing else, it's too small for all these beers. Only the best beers have that option.
Hmm ... maybe I need a separate beer fridge?

🍻 😎 🍻

And what am I listening to as I write this? Something from my latest #newtunes post. A musical landscape artist I've been listening to for years, this time taking a little detour into India, from his latest album "Guruji".
Highly recommended for calming down if you have a few minutes.
