Draft - Soft caramel notes and a light touch of grain. Clear dark amber with a decent white head. Light sweet caramel some raisin and some grain. Very average.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Dark brown color, apparently cloudy, with beige head. The aroma is a bit yeasty and metallic. The mouthfeel is mellow, the flavor is a bit chocolatey and bready, with light liquorice, light esters, too much yeast.
It’s not a bad beer, but it’s very far from being an Altbier.

Amber and cloudy, has a toasty nose, similar palate, with a touch of tartness that shouldn’t be there.

On tap. Pours a clear dark mahogany with light head. Aromas of dried chocolate, nuts and dried dark fruit. Flavors carry same with additional dry toasty malts and an emphasis on bitter nuttiness. Clean, though not really a fan of the style.

On tap at Yellow Dog, pours a cloudy dark orange amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out complex dark fruits and toasted nuts - lovely nose. Flavour is complex, with dark fruits, toasted nuts and toffee. Excellent balance of flavours, with nothing tame about this. They nailed this one.
