previously tested on BTO 12/2006: Das Ustersbacher Weihnachtsbier zeigt sich von seiner besten Seite, tiefgelb und mit ordentlich Schaum, der alleridngs sehr grobporig ist und schnell von dannen schwindet. Malziger Duft, malziger Antrunk und Mittelteil. Wirkt sehr süffig. Leichte Hopfennote untermalt das Ganze, insgesamt aber sehr malzbetont. Ziemlich kräftig und würzig. Gutes Weihnachtsbier.

Bottle. Corn syrup and barley malt aroma. Pale yellow color with small head. Sweet orange, light barley malt, and grassy hops flavor - wow, very unusual but it works well. Although the aroma doesn’t really do much for me, the flavor is a very pleasant surprise - very nice.

Bottle (courtesy of Jonas !): Deep chestnut-amber coloured with a smaller, quite stable off-white layer; moderate sweetish-caramelly nose with a tinge of toasted malt; moderate bitter-sweetish flavour, medium bodied; traces of hops in the drier bitter-sweet finish. O.K., quite well balanced brew.......

Getreidig-herber Antrunk, etwas hopfig. Das Aroma erinnert etwas an ein Alkoholfreies. Im Mittelteil wird es etwas grasig, bleibt aber weitestgehend süßlich-herb. Im Abgang wenig malzig, die Herbe ist etwas stärker. Test vom 12.8.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 6,7,8,7,8,7 - 7,10

Bottle. Chestnut, brown head. Somewhat oxidized roasted sugary aroma. Watery, roast, fermented apples, nutty finish. Sticky mouthfeel, oily, yet lightbodied. Not particulary harmonic.
