Bottle from Brother Tuckers. Brownish pour wtih a medium head. Aroma is nice with fruit, yeast and very malty. the flavor didnt match the great aroma for me. The bottle I had was somewhat bitter and not a pleasant hop bitterness, but a weird bitterness. It made me think I had a bad bottle??

11/6/08 notes: bottle. Pours pink-ruby, with a huge fluffy head. Pretty serious lacing as well. Aroma is sweet and tart simultaneously, cherries, green apple, strawberries, and candy. Initial flavor is filled with lively sweet fruit, which is accentuated by the pearly carbonation. Mid-palate mellows to reveal a complexity of chocolate, malt, and perhaps some nutmeg. Oerbier finishes very long and sticky, an extended sweet note that also reveals wood, and alcohol. Overall, this was a fun beer to drink. It has a beautiful pour and aroma, for one.

Bottle. Pours a deep slightly ruddy brown with a fairly massive and thick tan head. Laces the glass nicely in sheets. Just gorgeous beer. The nose is fantastic big upfront plum, fruit, some caramel, yeast aromas of bubblegum, cherry. Medium-sweet fruity caramel flavor. Very vinous, with slightly tannic fruit, some brown sugar, alcohol comes out only as it finally reaches room temperature. Very quaffable, lush carbonation and slightly dry mouthfeel, a nice bit of acidity. Great beer.

Bottle, pours dark brown with a huge frothy off-white head. Aroma of caramel and fruits and some citrusy hoppy notes. The beer is well carbonated and has lots of flavor and a long lasting finish. A Really nice beer.

Picked up at Maruhn Getränke in Darmstadt. Pours a hazy medium orangish amber color. Aroma is lightly malty, hoppy, yeasty, with a touch of fruit. Flavor is a nice mixture of malts and fruits.
