Robust enough to enjoy after dinner or with a cigar. Yet quaffable enough to make it a good session beer. Well done Maier! PhillyBeer2112 (2088), Orange Park, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Jun 26, 2002 Soft chocolate and caramel malt sweetness up front, followed by a dry, non-bitter finish, with nutty overtones. Aroma is light with chocolate and hazelnuts. Easy drinking, and not as sweet as you might expect from something called ’nectar’ - but the nut flavors make it something not to do too much of.
