Bottle, mail order from the brewery. Rich malt nose, nutty, toast, caramel and chocolate, citrus, bit of apple. Slightly more impressive than the filtered version. Cloudy brown-orange, low thick head. Rich and nutty, malty, grainy, spicy UK hops, very nice. Full body, low carbonation. Spicy, bitter finish. A step above the filtered version.

Bottle, mail order from the brewery. Malty nose, caramel, bread, spicy hops, toast, nuts. Very rich. Medium brown color with a medium, thick white head. Rich malt, medium sweet, toasty, nutty, bready, spicy. Very complex. Full, silky body. Spicy, bitter finish. This is really well done. A great malt showcase with lovely hops as well. Moving into strong ale territory.

Can, mail order from the brewery. Deep amber, slightly hazy, thick, rocky head. Bready, doughy nose, Peaches and stone fruit esters, toast. Lovely malt flavor, rich and fruity, slightly doughy, fresh baked baguette, light hops in the finish for spiciness and a light bitterness. Full bodied. Like this one, not overly sweet, rich and malty and the yeast seems to add esters. Comes across like a proper Kellerbier.

Baeren Alt Keller Special Unfiltered Version 5% Murky amber brown color with big fluffy fast-dissipating bubbles of foam. Malty caramel and fruit aroma. Medium bodied and fairly smooth. Roasty caramel coated fruits. I’m not a big alt guy but this is solid.
Very easy drinking. Not too malty, very refreshing.

Bottle, mail order from the brewery. Almost black with a tall tan head. Malty nose, toasted, roasted, light notes of chocolate and some charcoal. Also a bit fruity. Dry and roasty, more like a Schwarzbier than a Tmavy. The lack of filtration gives it a bit more body and flavor than the filtered version, but it still is too burnt and dry for my liking.

Bottle from the brewery. Toasty, slightly roasted aroma, lightly nutty, soy umami, light fruit. Almost black, with a tall, tan head. Rather toasty and roasty, low sweetness, charcoal notes. Well done, but too dry and roasted for the style in my mind. Very little sweetness.
