Apr 7, 2004 Updated: Jul 27, 2007I enjoyed this one. Translucent brown with a moderate head. Aroma of noble hops, maybe Saaz and/or Hallertau and rich caramelly malt. Slightly bitter. Delicious. Mouthfeel is bubbly and light. Finish is slight dry. Great beer!

Nov 2, 2005 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.

Mar 10, 2004 Cask. Tons of cereal (malted barley, oats) malt. Some spalt skunkiness and slight iron taste as well. Grapes, fresh earth and hoppy goodness round things out.

Mar 4, 2004 Served from a firkin. Attractive clear copper appearance. Restrained nose; a little on the fruity side. Smooth, malty taste with just enough of a hoppy bite to keep it interesting. Rich, warming finish; could have kept on drinking this all night.

Dec 11, 2004 Here’s a winner. Pours a medium brown with a nice beige head. The aroma is huge of toasted bread and malt. In the flavor there is lots of bread and toasted malt flavor with balancing bitterness that tends to linger.

Mar 6, 2004 Cask at Piece Brewery, enjoyed with Eric, Jeff, and Emily: A nice caramel hued brew with a small tan head but very good lacing. The aroma hints of aggressive bitter and noble hops, spicy white wine, toasted caramel malts, and leathery yeast esters. A sharp hoppy taste with a buttery malt undertone. The mouthfeel is so smooth, very nice. Glad we made the trip for this outstanding bier, among the finish in it's genre.

Dec 2, 2004 Beautiful long neck flip top bottle pours a brown tan color with a small head and no residual lace. The aroma is serious malt sweetness. The flavor is drier than the aroma, with some good caramel flavors mixing with the hops as a balance. The palate is rich and almost "sticky". Overall, I could drink a lot of this.

Dec 7, 2004 Updated: Jul 12, 2005Deep amber-red color with a minimal off-white head, this has a nifty nutty sweet malt aroma with a healthy smattering of earthy hops thrown in. Solid roasted malt flavor, not real sweet, with a good hop counterbalance. Even better than their regular alt. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?
