A clear ruby red beer with a small beige head. Aroma of caramelized malt, nuts, red malt, chestnuts. Taste of roasted and caramelized dark malt, hazelnuts, chestnuts, moderate spicy bitterness, good!

Dunkel malziger Beginn, moderate Herbe, deutliche Röstnoten. Spritzig, milde Bitterkeit, süffig, insgesamt eher unauffällig. 10/8/9/8/10/8

On tap at Holy Craft Beer Bar, pours a dark chestnut brown with a large beige head. Aroma is bready and dry, with toasted chestnuts and dry bready malt. Flavour is dry and timid, with gentle toasted chestnuts, some earthiness, and a slightly aggressive carb. It's alright — rather timid.

Pretty good! I haven't had a chestnut beer since Japan, five years ago. Bitter, roasty, distinct nutty taste.

0.33 l bottle from 'Vormann Brauerei', best before December 2024. Hazy, dark reddish brown with a thin, frothy, quickly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, slightly roasty aroma of cocoa, coffee, toasted nuts and caramel. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, gently roasty taste of caramel, cocoa, coffee, toasted nuts and some raisins, followed by a short, moderately roasty-bitter finish. Medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Solid ale, some sort of brown ale maybe, don't really get the chestnuts to be honest.
