Pours a dark brown, large slightly off-white head, stable and pillowy. Scent is breadcrust, whiff of caramel, dark bread. Rather loud, for the style. Taste is full, surprisingly bitter, with the dark breadyness in the back. Caramelly, as well as a slight earthyness. Easy drinker, but loads of flavor. Quite a nice one !

From one trinkgut, in Düsseldorf. Sharing and tasting this bottle with pleasure with my wife. A classical altbier, a way that I appreciate. A bit smocked at the beginning, dry, malty, mineral, toffee, full body, perfect before to sleep. 08.10.24

500ml bottle from Beers of Europe. My first Altbier. Pours a clear dark brown/mahogany with small off-white head, some retention. Aroma is malty, caramel, raisin, light grassiness. Taste is not intense but is semi-sweet, bready, burnt toast ends, light caramel, and grassy bitterness in the finish. A standard medium body and carbonation. Not bad.
