2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
bottled. sounded like an exciting idea but the end product is neither one thing nor the other - somewhere between brown and copper, minimal head; doughy aroma; light grassy hop character bt surprisingly bland in the end
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draught at Löwen Poste, Alpirsbach
Clean amber color. Strong aroma of cereals and wet cereals. Soft mouthfeel (there is some residual sweetness and the carbonation is low), with a boring caramel flavor, and a rather ow bitterness level. Unimpressive.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Half-liter glass on draught at Delirium in Brussels. Dark chestnut brown beer with off-white bubbles and sticky lace. Bit of a sweetish toffee, tootsie-roll nose, but pretty mild. Taste is fair caramel-malty sweetness rounded with a clean, crisp reasonable bitterness. Attractive, well balanced, highly drinkable.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a dark reddish brown color. Aromas of roasted malts, bits of chocolate and coffee. Flavor has a nice bitter roast taste and a touch of hops on the finish.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle bought in Marennes, France. Dark copper colour with a decent white head. toffeeish aroma. A sweet malty flavour with little finish. Disappointing.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
A Mes rate:
50cl bottle at Quinns. Extremely run of the mill. Way too much iron filings in there. Dark amber colour, thick white head. Usual German cereal notes. Erm... yup, that’s it.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Aroma of german hops and caramel malts. Clear, brown coloured with a lasting, medium, off-white head. Taste is quite sweet, carbonated and metallic. Caramel malts, some fruity tones. Slightly dry finish. Not too great.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Greyish brown colour. OK malty flavour, but slightly sewery. Ordinary.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottled. Copper coloured with almost no head. Malty and slightly spicy. Notes of berries and maaybe a weak hint of brown sugar. Kinda thin and sharp.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
An amber beer with a collapsing brown head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of berries and caramel. The flavor is sweet again with strong notes of berries, and lesser notes of caramel and malt, leading to a bitter end.
