Frankenheim Alt

Brewed by Privatbrauerei Frankenheim (Warsteiner)
Style: Altbier
Düsseldorf, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

Clear brown color, short off-white head. Very weak altbier. Nothing special.

On draft at bierfestival in Viersen. An average alt beer with tastes of caramel and nuts.

finally found an altbier 928 beers later. clear brown with a small light tan head. aroma of toasted nuts and caramel. flavor is the same as aroma. slightly tart finish. a really tasty brown ale.

Dark copper body, very persistent white head, and good lacing. Malty aroma, some metallic hops in the background. Bready & fruity taste, some spicy Saaz bitterness and slight caramel sweetness from the malt. A bit of a tart thing going on in the finish too, which made it nicely dry and drinkable. Light to medium body, not much carbonation.

Draft, Saarlouis, Germany, Altstadt. Nice copper pour, slight head, Malty flavor, a hint of fruit, some bread flavor, very easy drinking. decent brew.

Bottled - Metalic and hop aroma, pours a copper colour with a smallish head. A curious copper and malt flavour with a bittersweet finish. >Nice, could drink a few

Draught at Düsseldorf Airport
Beautiful dark amber color. It’s too cold of course. It has a simple aroma and a quite good caramel flavor, also quite dry mouthfeel, but unluckly a bit metallic too.

Gravity - Dark copper body, creamy off white head; Very fruity nose, lots of red berries with black currant in front, lots of malt aromas as well; Big carbonation in full only slightly bitter body; Very fruity (and to much of it) almost a little sour, bitter finish, black currant again with lots of malty bitterness, not elegant at all.
