Jul 15, 2004 Updated: Dec 10, 2004A personal favorite of mine. Pours a rich dark amber giving off an aroma that is very hoppy. On the palate the beer is extremely smooth with just the right amount of yeast to compliment the flavors. A good representation of the style throughout the glass and a welcome addition to my beers list.

May 28, 2004 Poured a copper color with no head or lacing. Light fruity, citrus mild hop aroma. Taste was of light malts, some fruit, and citrus hops as well. Beautiful alt.

Jul 19, 2004 Good biscuit smell. Balanced malt, sticky sweet. Finish is clean but not over-bitter. Seems like alts are "sticke" beers, ha ha. Okay. I’ll shut up now. Bottom line: good sweetness, a touch of fruitiness from the hops. Flavorful.

Oct 2, 2006 Crystal clear deep rusty amber body with a creamy head. Aroma of toasted bread crusts, toffee, and plums, plus a light pleasant phenolic clove note. Very nice malt character with notable Noble hop signatures. Flavor has a toasty, grainy edge and substantial dry bitterness. Medium-light body with some palatable residual unfermentables. A solid altbier, but doesn’t present the complexities of Uerige Sticke, for example.

Jun 22, 2004 Dark amber with a spiced hop flavor. A bit of a yeasty aftertaste. True to its description, retains full flavor throughout the glass.
