Poured a medium brown with a quick to fade head. I was hard pressed to pick up any aromas. Maybe some malt, caramel. The palate was crisp and nicely carbonated with not much in the way of flavour, light malt and some caramel and a slight cardboard taste in the finish. Stil an o.k. beer but nothing special.

Typical Alt. But a tad too boring, flat and too watery to be somehow exciting. Drinkable, though.

Pours light brown with reddish hues, with a large off-white head. Aroma is rather thin and carries a predominant nutty character. Taste is nutty and earthy, with a moderate hops presence and almost no malt sweetness. I don’t know much about the style, but for a beer in general this one is rather thin.

(Draught) Pours a clear deep brownish amber with small off-white head. Aroma is sweet and malty. Flavor of flat cola, molasses, and roasted nuts. Bitter and somewhat watery mouthfeel.

Draught
Bright brown color, small white head. Fresh, fruity, menthol, caramel and toffee aroma. Malty, caramelly body. Dry finish. Typical alt. (6/4/5/3/12 3.0)
Re-rated, bottle (BB 05/2007)
Ruby red color, creamy off-white head, lace. Mainly papery malty aroma with roasted caramelly notes. Grassy hoppy, lightly caramelly malty flavor. Leaves dry cardboard malty aftertaste. Not very solid alt, bottle should propably be freshier. (4/4/3/2/10 2.3)

(Tapped) Clear, light-coke colored with a smallish head. Quite miid, sweetish caramel-malty, slightly smoked aroma with some sourness. Somewhat roasted-malty, plasticky, slightly metallic, dry at first but sweetish towards the end. Medium-bodied, quite dry palate with balanced carbonation.

Mild malty caramel overtones in the flavor. Don’t get me wrong it’s thin and it is a little watery, but I could drink it over and over. Then again so could your buddy that only drinks Bud.

This is an unimpressive beer, thoguh it was darker than I expected. Not worth the price of admission.
