More of a bland brown ale than a real altbier, IMHO. Aubrey (2773), Denver, Colorado, USA Apr 6, 2003 Deep amber with a quickly fading head. Mild malt flavors. Light on the tongue; somewhat watery. Perfumey hop notes exude throughout, and actually distract quite a bit. Pungent at times. Maybe I caught it at a bad time?
