UPDATED: MAY 15, 2009 Bottle. Labeled Alt Böhmisch Bernstein. ABV 4,8 %Pours clear dark amber with a moderate off-white creamy head. Strong dark malty aroma. caramel. Semi sweet in the taste department, gentle velvety mouthfeel, dark malt in the front seat, not allowing the fine hops to come fully through, leaving a sweet aftertaste as well.

08/03 It poured brown body with medium sized head. Caramel aroma, also grainy and pretty boring for that. Caramel flavor, slightly roasted malty like coffee, but I found also some unpleasant metallicity in it. Medium body with caramel grainy metallic finish. Not really good beer, actually I’m bothered with some unpleasant notes in it. Crappy Vienna.

From somewhere in Berlin. Brown, slightly reddish body with a medium sized white head. Grainy dark bready nose, sweetish. Dry, slightly roasty caramelly dry tasty. Ok, but not more than that.

At an kaufland in aachen germany, bottle 500ml, nice spicey with lots of grain and hop, fully almost sirupy one, gentle in his kind.

Bottle. Amber colour with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet, caramel, fruit, malt. Flavour is sweet, caramel, fruit, malt, hint of hop, apple. OK beer.

Bottle at home. Clear dark amber - Offwhite head. Aroma: Can, pale lager, white bread. Taste: Sweetness, syrup, raisins, light smokey, caramel, red berries, metallic, vegetables, bread. Not that interesting.

Bottle. Amber golden colour with a nice white head when pouring. Aroma and taste of caramel, sweet malty flavours and flowery hops. Some dry finish but a very nice and mild mouthfeel. Balanced carbonation. A very nice czech vienna.

Bottle. Looking nice in the glass, with a clear amber body and a nice, medium-sized off-white head leaving lacings. I’m not so impressed with the aroma. It’s not bad, more boring, there’s caramel-sweetness, there’s some fruity notes, and there’s also a touch of cooked vegetables. The flavor is better though, lacking the veggies. Malty-sweet, with caramel, some bready flavors, and a nice hoppy fruityness. A bit low on bitterness maybe. The mouthfeel is a bit sticky too, and of medium fullness. The bitterness is more evident in the finish than it was initially, and is followed by bready malts and caramel sweetness. Overall, a quite drinkable beer, but it doesn’t stand out at all. (080522)

Bottle (Čest Quack-Duckovi !): Amber coloured, lacy and slowly collapsing off-white head; caramell and burnt malt in the nose; mainly sweet (caramelly) flavour, light to medium bodied; becomes drier and more bitter in the caramelly-hoppy finish. Good and well rounded.........

Clear amber colour with a small off white head. Malty, light caramel and fruity sweet aorma with bread notes. Malty, grainy and light caramel sweet sweet flavor with bread notes.
