Ungstrup (22886) - Oamaru, - JUL 10, 2006
A hazy dark amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel, and so is the flavor.

kuphish (351) - Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA - NOV 13, 2011
Swing top bottle from P&M. Clear, copper body with a diminishing white head. A little grape and caramel in the nose with some faint woodsieness. Flavor has more candy-ish caramel with some fruity esters. Little hop flavor. Medium bodied beer with moderate carbonation. Sweet up front, especially compared to other alts. Mild bitterness. Grape flavor lingers in the finish. Overall not bad, but pretty meh.

erickok (794) - Leiden, NETHERLANDS - OCT 22, 2011
Murky brown body with red glow, big foamy light tan head. Earthy, cheese, figs and dark pine aromas. Very refreshing malty body with light bitterness. An interesting drink. Not overly complex. End is bitter with chocolate. Not in love with the watery mouthfeel though. (50cl bottle, 2,50 EUR)

ElDesmadre (378) - Mikołów, POLAND - AUG 30, 2011
Bottle. Light hazy brown with quite a frothy but not very sustainable head. Malty, lightly hoppy aroma with grain, nuts, caramel, yeast, some smoke and tobacco, slightly sourish. Taste is dominated by the nutty-caramelly maltiness, is a bit sweetish and only slightly bitter, with a great nut and tobacco aftertaste. Significantly better than the regular alt from Bolten.

cfrancis (1222) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 3, 2011
Pours a hazy reddish brown with a thin white head. Aroma is slight roasted malts, raisin and a little boozy. Taste is sweet and a little syrupy, roasted malts and grains with a hint of hop. Seems a bit boozy but it’s more of a aged spirit taste. Not bad.
