Commercial Description:
Carnival comes but once a year - and you can only enjoy Sticke beer at Uerige twice a year. It contains more malt and hops and has a higher alcoholic content than normal Altbier. And our guests appreciate it! In earlier days it used to be whispered hand over mouth that Uerige was serving Sticke again because the master brewer had portioned the ingredients too generously. With today's fully-automated operation, this could not happen. So Sticke beer is brewed intentionally - and this certainly doesn't negatively effect either its quality or taste.

The two dates every year are always the same. The third Tuesday in January and October are the two Sticke days.

LIght hop aroma and copper in color. Large airy head on initial pour but, quickly fades away. Not much malt taste but hop bitterness is clearly present. Has a nice clean finish.

Minimal liight tannish head that dissipates quickly. Nice amber brown hue. Fruity and toffee is the aroma that stands out. Medium sweetness that is balanced nicely with medium bitterness. Full body with a nice creamy texture. Somewhat long bitterness in the finish.

Bottle: Medium brown clear body w/ a light beige lasting head. Toasty Mucich malt aroma w/a light roast and very, very light caramel; Slight floral hop behind everything else as it warms. Flavor starts out w/ toasty malt, very well balanced, but quickly turns pleasantly bitter that lasts well into the finish and aftertaste; light roasty w/ some hop flavor in the finish as well, finishes on the dry side. Very clean and crisp. Light medium body w/ low carbonation and a slightly prickly feeling from CO2, but very smooth overall. This is what I imagined a D. Alt to taste like if I'd ever had one before this point. Very clean and pleasantly bitter; It has Czech Pils rounded bitterness w/ a Munich Dunkel grain characteristic, but lighter and more delicate. Great stuff!

Pours a clear dark amber with a pillowy tan head. Aroma of smoky malt and a bit of hops. Flavor is surprisingly watery, with some caramel maltiness and German hops in the background. Tastes much less than 6.5%. Finishes sweet and moderately dry.

Dark amber w/ a tight head that diminishes to a nice ring. Very nicely balanced flavor--a deep munich malt richness balanced w/ a flor nobel hop aroma and a good dash of bitterness. Delectably quaffable and an elegent example of the style. Neato bottle too.
