Copper/amber pour with a small head. Aromas of malts, grains, a bit earthen. Tastes of malts, caramel, a hint of sweet bread with a decent bitter finish. A bit too sweet, tbh, but a nice beer.

Tap at the brewery. Clear reddish copper with a finger of foam. Bread-forward aromas with some light raisin. Wheat berry and bread on the palate. Light bitter bite on the finish. Very drinkable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Alt on 04 Sep 2016 at 15:24 - Score: 6. Original review text: Decent fruity breadt nose. Wheat berry and bread notes. Light bitterness. Ok.

Bottle. Hazy brown with small beige foamy head, caramel aroma, high carbonation, somewhat flat caramel taste, abrupt finish with sweet aftertaste. Not bad but a bit weak.

Bottled. Hazy nut brown, small head. Toasty fruit yburnt nose. Sweet and medium bodied with solid chewy backbone covered in earthy lingonberry. Lightly salty finish. Contrary to many other overseas interpretation of the style this one seems to be carefuly modelled after the real, old-fashioned versions, not the Carlsberg brewed macro-stuff. I like it!

Bottle. Rather dark brown color, with copper. Low, fine foamy head. Aroma of coffee, roasted malt, caramel, nuts, a touch of sweetness. Roasted malt flavor, with coffee and caramel in the background. Very roasted. Slightly sweet but dry roasted malt predominates. Very nice. Slightly fruity, raisins, a touch of walnuts. Dry finish of roasted malt and caramel. Excellent beer, darker and more stout-like than any other alts I have tried, but very well done. A complex and creative interpretation of the style.

Dark amber color, white head, very, very, very mildly fruity nose. Surprisingly hop accented, with solid malt buscuitiness. Cardamon finish. Authentic, but restrained.

Reddish copper with a large, foamy, off-white head. Aroma is caramel malts, some citric fruits, toasted, and I swear I’m picking up raspberry, also. Lightly toasted caramel malts, some citrus, cocoa, and a little fruit. Finish is malty with a little bitter bite. Medium body. Suprising.
