Mar 7, 2005 Updated: Mar 8, 2005Hazy mahogany with a medium frothy light brown head. Sweet aroma of cookie, dough, caramel, hazelnut and plum. Medium velvety body with a moderate amount of carbonation. Mostly sweet flavor of caramel, hazelnut, plum, raisin, smoke, and brown sugar. Very smooth and drinkable. Very good.

Feb 4, 2006 Gigantic foamy billowing head. The swing top actually popped and spritzed almost like champagne. Altbier? Seasonal? Hmm ... hops presence on the nose with a sly mix of sweeter malt. Good combo - almost like a solid IPA mixed with a top brown sweet ale. Sharp clear tawny hue. Fresh crisp finish. Cool sleek unique looking bottle. Enjoyable bier!

Jan 3, 2005 Pours lightish redbrown with some head that disperses within a minute. Malty light caramel notes, finishes sharp hoppy. Above average, not wildly impressive. I would try again. Enjoyed chilled from bottle, poured into glass.

Aug 9, 2004 This dark amber altbier pours with very little head and elicits very little aroma. However, it is a fine example of the style, with a slightly bitter and very satisfying caramel malt flavor. If you ever get to Dusseldorf, stop by Zum Uerige and try their home-made sausage, which complements their beer very nicely.

Jan 13, 2008 Murky, muddy dark-brown pour with a small white cap. Lots of mixed fruits and yeast, leading to a bready malt aroma. Subtle and light, this has a malt contingency mixed with some woody notes and a small earthen hop to finish the pull. Caramel malts are integrated, again subtly, without being "hidden". Woody afternotes show this brew’s complexity from beginning to finish. The oily mouthfeel makes the pull highly drinkable, and would make for a good session brew.

Jun 12, 2006 Bottle date 31-01. Sweet fermented aroma. Cloudy brown with small head. Flavor is heavy dose of alcohol and sweet but mellows out conciderably by the finish with a carmelized crystalation of sorts. Sugary and sweet aftertaste and cool bottle. Good brew.

Jan 21, 2006 Pours slightly haze nut brownwith an off-white head and good head retention. Nose is of a malty brown with some wood and tobacco notes. Mouthfeel is medium with moderate carbonation and a dry finish. Flavors are more malty than hoppy, nutty with a bit of roast. Fairly straightforward and pleasant.
