Pours a cloudy brown with a moderate head and nice lacing. Nose of malts with earthy notes. Taste of fruit with coffee and caramel notes. Short bitter/sweet finish.

Pours a dark hazy brown color. Aromas of bread, malt, and some fruit. Flavor has a touch of sweet malt and clove, I think.

Aroma: Fruity, like apples and pears, with a hint of tobacco. Malts are well-developed, chocolaty with a hint of coffee. Appearance: Thick, murky brown, with a pea-soup greenish tint. Creamy, uniform head with good retention. Flavor: Very much like apple cider, or applesauce. Yum! Toasted malts are the base flavor, with a bit of clove and alcohol. Reminds me of bread pudding. Finish is sweet and refreshing, not sugary in the least. Palate: Glorious! Incredibly creamy, with little sharp bursts of carbonation. Overall: This is quite yummy, but I can imagine it might get somewhat cloying after a while. Still, very drinkable.

I like this beer for a macro. The Germans know their beer and even their macro brewed beers are very nice. This one is nice and malty and hints of a nice bread can be found also.

Bottle-chilled and ready to go after a long drive to NC, thanks Gabs. Nice orange brown hazy pour and foam head. Yeast up front, malt texture and what a great blend. Aroma of bread and grains mixes into the body and pallet. This was a refreshing quaffer, only thing missing was a large Stein.

Draft: Poured a amber color with a nice amount of head. The aroma was sweet banana and bread. The flavor was smooth with fruit, caramel and a hint of cloves present. Overall, an easy drinking beer, one I’d get again.

Cloudy amber/orange with light tan head. Aroma of banana, clove, bubblegum and spice. Flavor is spicy with wheat and banana too. Medium palate leads way to a metallic but spicy finish.

Tap. Big brown beer with big brown head. Wheat and malt aroma. Very easy to drink. Wheat, bready and clean taste.
