Bottle - Grains, malts and spices on the nose. Actually quite sweet smelling. Dark clear amber with a thin brown head. Bread, grains and malty. Spices are subdued and almost no bitterness. Fairly rich and at 6.6% definitely not something to drink all night.

A hazzy reddish brown lager with a thin light moka head. A grassy wet mash aroma, very green, pungeant. In mouth, a roasted malt with lots of burned bitterness, very nutty, with light chocolate notes. Medium bodied. Tasted with Probstk, May 2007. Thanks to Piscator for the trade.

Dark amber-brown colour with finger of foam. The aroma is toasty, slightly nutty, slightly dusty. Lightly toasty taste, but it’s kind of thin...lacking richness. There’s a bit of woody, nutty, even chocolatey character. Fairly dry finish. Reasonably clean. Nice complexity to the malts, but it needs more sugars to fill out the profile and body.

Bottle (courtesy of Piscator34): Poured a deep amber color beer with a huge slightly foamy head with average retention and great lacing. Aroma of floral hops is generous and enjoyable. Taste is well balance between nutty malt and floral malt and ends with medium bitter finish. Body is above average and again low filtration level makes this truly enjoyable. Very well balance beer overall and even though hops are more present then the style would dictate, it provide very good enjoyment
