shrubber85 (2462), Wallhalben, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany Mar 30, 2008 Bottle. Musty brown sugar malt aroma. Reddish brown color with moderate head. Strong grass/green hay flavor - light caramel malt. I lke the grassy flavor but not much malt, smoke or other typical altbier flavors. MiP (4927), Flensburg, Germany Feb 27, 2008 Bottle, 4.8%. Dusty aroma, like brick dust. Beautiful clear dark brown colour. Nice stable creamy head. The flavour starts dry and slightly metallic. Turns a little malty but ends with slightly rough bitterness. A good example of an Alt, but that is not a favourite style of mine. Gets more malty and mellow, less rough as it warms up. oh6gdx (5739), Vaasa, Finland Jan 22, 2008 Bottled (thanks Papsoe!). Deep amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is wood, hops, hay and some mild caramel malts in it too. Flavour is wooden, fruity, malty and big hoppyness creeping up through the other flavours. Quite hayish and sweet in the finish. sk8viking (6078), Copenhagen, Denmark Dec 27, 2007 Bottle. a dark amber beer with a big off-white head. Dusty caramel malt, hay aroma and taste. Medium body with a dry finish. gunnfryd (2718), Kristiansand, Norway Dec 25, 2007 Bottle. Brown colour with a beige head. Aroma is fruit, malt. Flavour is fruit, malt, apple, hint of hop. Ordinary beer.
