comes in a 12 oz long neck..nice ,simple water colour on tha label
the beer pours a nice light brown almost amber in colour..its also crystal clear..there was a small white head that went down fast to a good lace.
I can smell the malts very well..plus a frsh pine sort of aroma ( not nasty, intrigueing).
Ah nice tasting Alt we have here , starts sweet, then gives way to a velvety creamyness ( like unsalted butter)..then the hops appear..again the piney flavour appears as an aftertaste.
I like the feel on the palate the contrast between the sweetness , then the creamyness..then the bitter after taste.
Very drinkable Alt beer..Im beginning to like this rare style..maybe I should make a trip to Dusseldorf one of these days.

Jan 7, 2009 Pours orange-amber into a shaker. Off-white head quickly recedes to skim surface. Caramel malt aromas. Sweet caramel upfront, crisp and dry in the finish.

Dec 28, 2008 Bottle... Poured clear amber with a white head that faded quickly. Had a faint, leafy malt aroma. Foamy texture with berry flavors, caramel-sweet malt and a little of a bitterness in the finish.

Dec 24, 2008 I had this on tap in Bar Harbor, ME
It left a lasting impression on me, hence the good rating.
Nice yellow / amber color. good head. basic brew that I could drink all night.

Dec 24, 2008 Bottle pours a golden body with a white head. Butterscotch toffee feel but then a bunch of toasted malt and a simple German pils/lager simple mouthfeel. eh.

Oct 20, 2008 Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright ruby-caramel color with a large orange-tan head. The aroma was sour, tangy and malty but not particularly noteworthy. The flavor was sour, bitter and tangy with a light fruity undertone and a hint of caramel. The finish was rather short. Basic.
