Commercial Description:
Christoffel Robertus is a low-fermenting ruby-red beer, brewed in the Münchener-style. It is a malty, fresh beer with a light sweetness. The typical hopbitterness found in Blond, is very lightly present in Robertus. The use of an extensive amount of selected barley gives Robertus the special malty taste and aroma.

33 cl bottle with swing-top cap. Served in tall Gouden Carolus glass. Clear reddish amber. OK head. Well-hopped aroma with some dark spiciness to it. The taste is spicy, has a certain nut-like character, and is light and pleasant. Enjoyable, prickly mouthfeel. Good drinkability.

A towering creamt light tan head is formed on top of a murky red-brown body. The aroma is full of nutmeg, sweetnees, and some white toast. The flavor is more fruity with the spiciness taking a back seat. The bready toast is still present as is some light caramel. Toffee really comes out after the swallow. Very soft palate, medium body. Quite nice.

Pours with a two-finger white head that goes quickly and leaves no lace. Dark cloudy amber color. Good carbonation. Nose is malty. Starts sweet and finishes with a balance of hops and malt. A nice dark lager. Medium bodied. $10 for a 2-pack of 330s with a glass.

A bit o’ caramel malt, and nutmeg, and slightly flower petal hop (delicate and with turned earth reality all at the same time), this is a great vienna. Slightly thin, though still a bit oily and clearly in style (and boatloads better than most Viennas) - in fact, the maltiness here is very traditional, less agressively hopped than some of the high-scoring American versions (which I love).

Poured a dark bronze color, with a large yet rapidly fading head. Citric, tart, fruity and somewhat sour aroma - odd, but complex and balanced. The flavor starts out sweet & sour, then finishes very malty with caramel sweetness and a long lingering, tart sourness. Good balance. Mouthfeel was solid, could use a bit more carbonation though. You don’t see much Vienna Sours around here and this one is surprisingly good.

2 litre jug (?there must be a name for this - glass jug, metal handle, flip top?). Translucent orange-brown with a small, off-beige head. Aroma is sweet-spicy-fruity. Flavour is the same; dark fruit, syrup-sweet malt, brown spice. Nice hoppy finish. Damn, I like this style.

Draft. Clear red with an orange tone; average off white head. Nose of cherry cordial and cedar shavings. Taste of orange, boiled sweets, cherry and caramel. Spicy to sweet to spicy in that span of 5 seconds. Long oak finish. Syrupy texture. Really very good. I’ve had it from the bottle and liked it very much as well.
