Bottle, bought at the brewery. Caramelly aroma with a hint of butter. Malty sweet flavor with some roast. Hint of cardemom. Thin. Persisting roastbitter aftertaste. Fairly clean, yet rural beer.

Süßlich herber Malzantrunk mit deutlichen Röstnoten. Der Hopfen ist erstmal nur in trockenen Noten erkennbar. Wenig aromatisch, besonders zum Ende recht trocken. Hier auch würziger in die hopfige Richtung. 10/9/9/9//9

Bottle: SLIGHTLY HAZY; DARK AMBER COLOURED; SMALLER OFF-WHITE HEAD, BARNYARDY; FRUITY AND SLIGHTLY TOASTED-MALTY NOSE, LIGHT SWEETISH-BITTER FLAVOUR; slightly fruity, mainly caramelly finsh. Not unpleasant, but absolutely not outstanding...........

(bottle) Hazy, dark amber colour with a medium-sized, off-white foamy head. Slightly sweet and toasty malt aroma with a strong but also “aromatic” barnyard character (pig sty). Light-bitter flavour, medium to light bodied with a soft carbonation. Malt-accented, only shy toasty tastewith a fruity touch of dried fruits. Malty, light-bitter finish with a faint hoppy note. Okay but not great Dunkel.
