Bottle. Reddish brown. Decent head. Aroma is malts, caramell, chestnuts and a little bit of that skunky, damp basement. Taste is nutty, malty, spicy and caramell. Good carbonation. Unfortunately it’s quite watery and bland. But the taste improves as it gets warmer and reminds me of a real süffig Altbier.

0.3 l on tap at ’Bergmann Kiosk’ as ’Spezial’. Clear, dark brownish amber with a thin, slightly creamy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, slightly roasty aroma of caramel, nuts and hints of chocolate. Slightly sweetish, malty and slightly roasty taste of caramel, toasted nuts, roasted bread, some chocolate and hints of tobacco, followed by a medium long, quite bitter, dry-roasty finish. Medium body, slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Quite okay, not that aromatic, quite bitter in the end, but drinkable, of course.

Schöne Kastanienbraune Farbe mit fast weißem Schaum. Ganz leicht malziger Geruch. Der Antrunk ist würzig-malzig, dabei ganz leicht, aber gut abgewogen herb. Zum Hauptteil hin wird das Bier leicht trocken, geht schon in die Bier-Richtung „Dunkel“.Dabei sehr angenehm abgewogen würzig-süßlich. Zum Nachgeschmack kommt die gut abgewogene Hopfennote wieder etwas stärker hervor, dazu eine trocken-malzige und eine leicht süßliche Note. Auf der Zunge bleibt eine malzig-trockene und angenehm herbe-süßliche Note.
--> Ein wirklich leckeres Bier. Sehr zu empfehlen! Test vom 9.5.2009, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 12,12,12,13,12,12 - 12,15
