yngwie (4880), Kristiansand, Norway Oct 8, 2009 Bottle. It pours a clear, dark golden body under a nice, off-white head. Bready, caramel nose with a faint vegetal note and some prunes. Roasted notes too. Quite dry in the mouth, with caramel and bread, hints of roasted malts and dried fruits in the back. A little hazelnut touch and some bitterness lingering. Medium to full body with palate cleansing carbonation. Dry, bready finish with some fine bitterness. A really fine altbier that I would love to drink all night some time.. 091008 mcdav2154 (297), Germany Sep 13, 2009 Brownish color body with a thick cream head. Great lacing. Smell is of caramel, nuts, malt, and heavy on the hops. Taste was amazing! Great bitterness to the mild sweet flavor. Hop bite stays for a long while. One of my new favorite altbiers.
