Sampled from 0.5 l plastic bottle from local ’Aldi’, best before February 2018. Clear, deep brownish red with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, minimally roasty aroma of caramel, brown sugar and nuts with a touch of chocolate. Moderately sweet, malty, slightly grassy-spicy and a bit roasty taste of caramel, toasted nuts, some chocolate and hints of straw, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly grassy-spicy and a bit dry finish. Medium body, slightly creamy and moderately effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Not bad actually!

Weich malziger, für ein Alt vollmundiger Antrunk. Dieser verspricht allerdings zu viel, das Bier baut zum Mittelteil an Malz breits ab und wird etwas säuerlich. Dennoch ist immernoch genügend Malz vorhanden, um das Aroma vollmundig wirken zu lassen. Wenig bis gar nicht herb, wenig bitter zum Ende, wo das Malz aber weiter einen hohen Stellenwert einnimmt. Hier kommt eine hopfige Note hindurch, die natürlich und frisch wirkt. Ungewöhnlich aber gut, nur der Nachgeschmack verschwindet zu schnell. Danke an den Doppelbock für das Bier! 12/10/11/11/5/11

Bottled, thanks Bov! Copper colour, average head. Roasty butter aroma. Sweet and mellow with offputting burnt vegetable flavour and plenty of butyric acid. Oddly funky and really awful.
