3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 BlackHaddock (2350) - Shropshire, ENGLAND - MAY 2, 2012
Aug 2006: My first ever review (on BA). Only ever drank it in the brewhouse, and I can only say, it was great on all three occasions. It is off the main Alt Stadt drinking area, but well worth finding. The whole place added to the way I remember the beer tasted.
Not a typical Dusseldorf Alt by any means. Slightly darker and not as sweet compared to most.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Mortlach (713) - Rome, ITALY - APR 15, 2012
15/04/2012 500ml bottle, IP trade (thanks Erzangel!). Ambrata, abbastanza limpida, schiuma bianca abbondante, a grana grossolana, molto persistente. Aroma di crosta di pane, malto, lieviti, con una lieve nota fastidiosa (forse una piccola infezione?). In bocca è ancora malto, pane, luppolo, moderatamente amara. Corpo medio, carbonazione abbondante. Peccato, non era in perfetta forma.

Draught @ Zur Uel, Dusseldorf. Pours clear copper with a creamy white head. Fruity , dry and hoppy. Malty caramel and bread. Smooth. One of the best Alt’s in Dusseldorf.

3.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20 kuphish (378) - Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA - NOV 10, 2011
On draft at the brewery. Expected appearance - clear, copper body with a creamy, off-white head that is fluffy like a root beer float. Almost pattern-like lacing. Nice, hoppy nose with some toasty malt underneath. Rich malt flavor - same expected toast, but with some caramel and faint, Heath-like toffee presence. Hops poke through, too. Medium body with light carbonation. Good, solid, lingering bitterness to balance the malt. Excellent alt!
