(draught) Red-brown ale, nearly garnet; slim but stable, very dense head, cream-coloured. Faint caramel nose - rather sweet and very faint. Roasted, delicate bitterish-sweet taste, a bit spicey (garden herbs). A flavour not unlike Maillard. medium-bodied, slightly slick, even oily MF. Nice Alt, not anywhere near the Düsseldorfer classics, but at least equal to the industrial ones. Fine toasted taste marks this.

Malzig-herber, leider auch trockener Antrunk. Die Malzaromen sind gelungen, werden aber immer wieder von der Trockenheit unterbrochen. Herb, trocken, daher oft unausgewogen. Trinkbares Altbier. 6/7/7/6/5/6

Amber color; creamy head. Malty aroma, a bit metallic. Thin mouthfeel, with light malt and some more caramel; ending with a strong bitterness. Absolutely ordinary.

A brown beer with a small but fast disappearing head. The aroma is slightly sweet and malty - very faint aroma. The flavor is lovely sweet and malty with notes of roasted malt and maybe some münchner malt. It has a pretty good bitterness. A fine beer without being great.

Light brown, head disappeared rather quickly. Light malty and sugary nose. Malt and a licorice aftertaste on the tastebuds. Rather thinbodied. Maybe its just the season, but I expected a bit more powerfull beer.

Deep amber-brown; with a large aroma showing demerara sugar, burnt cherries, and a touch of peaty Highland malt. The palate brings a cornucopia of flavours - the demerara more pronounced, a toasty maltiness that reminds of a thick-crusted whole wheat bread fresh out of the oven, a touch of iron and a subtle mix of blackberries and cherries.
