Jan 24, 2007 Draft at Brewhouse #1. Poured cloudy brown color with an average frothy off-white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate complex balanced aroma. Medium body with a slick texture. Moderate balanced flavor with a bittersweet finish of average duration. Good drinkable brew.

Feb 11, 2009 Thanks to hopdog for passing this growler onto me. Pours a mostly hazy deep amber with a medium off white head that left tons of lacing. Aroma of spicy noble hops, caramel, toasted malt, floral notes, light chocolate notes, surprised at how hoppy this was...but more noble than "citrusy". Flavor of some resiny hops, moderate hop bitterness, toffee, nuts, toasted malt and grapefruit. This was interesting...not sure I would really consider it an altbier.

Feb 4, 2005 On draught at Ale House #1. This beer is a murky burnt sienna color with a medium beige head. Thin and sticky lacing. The aroma is really sweet with caramel, brown sugar and malt. Medium-bodied with a nice balance of flavors. Brown sugar and malt are offset by a fair amount of hops. The finish is earthy and is equal parts hops and sweet malt, along with a bit of dark fruit afterftaste. Well done Alt!

Jan 11, 2006 On tap at alehouse #1 - Pours a dark deep murky brown with a fair tan head that fades rather quickly. Aroma is caramel, brown sugar, some chocolate, and some definite hop presence. Flavor is a divine mix of sweet caramel and chocolate malts also some notes of dark fruit with a curious hop finish. Palate is medium bodied and quite smooth and somewhat earthy and drinkable. Very well done...
