Bottle, mail order from the brewery. Definitely looks cloudy when pouring. A bit darker than the filtered version. Rich, nutty nose. The difference is on the palate and in the body. Much richer body, fuller, and a deeper, richer malt flavor as well. Much better than the filtered version. Bitterer too.
