Light amber color, light fuggles nose. Soft hoppy body with oranges and apples. Dry moderately bitter finish. Ho-hum. 6/2/7/3/13 Update: This is now in can. It is not even close to what I had before and is not recommended at all. New rating combines the two ratings

Bottled, brewed in Germany
Almost opaque dark brown, decent expresso head. Crisp, even lemony aroma. Roasted flavor, quite thin, foamed mouthfeel. Some hops pop up in the finish. Reminds me about Hartwall Porter.

Bottle. Beautiful tan head with good duration. Dark brown - almost black. Not much taste tho. Hints of coffee and chocolate.

Dark brown witha light brown head, slightly sour, milk chocolate nose. med-light mouth, milk chocolate and bitterness start the mouth, then into more dark chocolate flavours. Nice dark chocolatey finish, but lacking bitterness that was at the front of the mouth. A bit of a wimpy palate, but decent flavors nonetheless.

Cloudy yellow color, thick white head that sticks around. Coriander, orange peels with Belgian yeast in the nose. Light sptizy mouth that intially reminded me of Hoegaarden to a tee, but it a bit sweeter and there is more orange character. Really good. I like this much better than their regular wit. This is one of the better wits I have had.

Dark brown color, with a slightly sour chocolatey nose. Sour start, weak chocolatey mouth that is rathering boring. Dark chocolatey malty finish. Rated with a cold.

Bottled. Amber colour, papery nose. Thin and metallic with sharp mouthfeel. Another lousy beer with fake label from Haus der 131 Biere. They sell this beer as a Japanese altbier, when clearly it’s locally made crap.

A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet metallic combined with notes of caramel, and so is the flavor, while the body is thin.

160ml can courtesy of Presario: Poured a medium-black color stout with a medium brown head with average retention. Aroma of roasted malt and bitter hops is clearly evident and enjoyable. Taste is at first characterized by roasted malt with subtle sweetness and ends on a mild bitter note. Seems this one lack a bit of character to make it truly interesting.

160ml can courtesy of Presario: Poured a slightly hazy white/golden color wit with a medium bubbly white head with average retention. Aroma of wheat and coriander is clearly detectable. Taste is quite refreshing and full of wheat with some hints of coriander. Body is fuller then average as well as carbonation. Quite good and refreshing for the style and I totally dig this (new for me) format.
