(bottle, from my local METRO Cash&Carry market) Clear, orange-amber colour with a tanned mid-sized foamy head. Mildly toasted malty aroma with notes of caramel, a nutty touch and citric hops. Bitter-sweet flavour, a bit slim bodied with a slightly prickly carbonation. Delicately toasty, cara-malty base with nutty accents and a rising citric hoppy touch towards the bitter-sweet and rounded slightly toast-malty finish with fruity hops, including notes of lemon and grapefruit. Mild and fruity Ale. The price of ~1,78€ /bottle is fair. 12.VII.12

Fass @ Random outdoor place near the Rothaus in Hamburg. Pours amber, no head. Notes of marzipan, caramel, chocolate and flowery hops. A hint of smoke. Unclean maltiness and a bit too carbonated. Overall: reminds me of a German Newcastle Brown Ale.

50 cl. bottle @ home. Amber with a white head full of tiny bubbles. Earthy malty aroma with a slightly metallic taste. Not the experience the bottle promises.

August 2006 on BA: First tried this at a Beer Exchange near Cologne in 2003. Drank it again last month in Cochem, a wine tourist town on the Mosel. It is not the same drink! The flavour appears to have gone, it smelt and looked the same, but it was not as thick or tasty as I thought I remembered. I used the same bar three different days for this review, but it still would not return to its former glory, hence my poor marks.

Originally rated June 2004. Comes in a nice 500ml brown bottle, with a seal around the cap written "Garanteed to be beechwood matured". Pours an amber colour and a nice bubbly head just like the Lowenbrau I had tonight (except it was beige). Aromas of sweet malts. Has a dry bitterness and a sweet finish. For and altbier, I do prefer Magnotta Brewery Classic Altbier.
