The aroma is of hops, malt and cola. The color is brown and it has a fine beige head. The flavor is very camarelic and of cola with a weird note of hops and a dry end and thin body.

Bottled
Dark brown copper color. Creamy small white head. Quite mild hops and herbal aroma. Smooth malty mouthfeel: something like between a good dunkel and a good pilsener. Plain but very drinkable session beer.

The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel, roasted bread, and a sharp flowerness. The color is a clear brown and it has a beutiful beige head. The flavor is very nice of roasted bread, slightly sweet with accents of caramel, and sharp herbs. It has a great bitter end from a combination of roasted malt and bitter hops. A very refreshing beer and nice beer.

A red brown beer with a small disappearing head. It has no aroma at all. The flavor is sour malty with notes of roasted bread - if this weren't German I'd bet there had been used brewing cereal in it - a boring German Ale.

A very pretty beer from the aspects of the pour, but not too remarkable until you think this is German and it's not a Lager. This sweetly toned, lightly hopped beer is a very refreshing change of pace from the traditional English ale and is nothing like it's American hop ale cousins. The only Alt I've had to my knowledge, so I can't make comparisons. Worth a try.

OK body and bitterness, but certainly one of the more simplistic altbiers around.
