2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
I got a 500mL bottle of this from Woodman’s in Rockford, IL for $3.29 in Early 2012.
Pours a dark amber color with a fluffy head that leaves lacing clinging to the glass. Scents of barley and yeast are the most noticeable. You can really find the barley as it is very grainy tasting. Quite earthy and mellow flavor that gives this beer great drinkability. Some attributes that I can see people pointing out is I do find the volume to be a little too thin and the after taste is not as good as it could be as it is sort of chalky.

Bottle (50 cl) from bierzwerg.de. Clear amber, medium white head. A bit odd earthy, floral hops aroma, on a bready malt background. Light to medium bodied, medium carbonation. Semi dry with medium bitterness.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Fairly dark copper pour, minor head. Mild aroma of toasted malt, straw, dirt and maybe a bit of spice. Medium hopping. Taste is what one would expect from above - consistently sweet with a slightly bitter finish. Bready after effect. Medium body, decent carbonation.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 11/20
500 ml bottle. Pours a beautiful translucent reddish-copper color with a small off white head that soon dissipates. The aroma is mild with molasses, grains and brown sugar. The flavor is overtly sweet with more brown sugar, sweet breads, and lager yeast. The palate is thin and watery with medium carbonation. Finishes short and sweet with some lager yeasts lingering. Overall: Meh
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Dark amber with red highlights that throws up a tall, long lasting white head.
Light malt aroma. Lot of bready, bisuity, yeasty notes.
Lightly sweet malt flavor profile with just a balance of hops.
2.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
50 cl bottle @ home, BBE 05.2012
Aroma is rather weird and stale with nettles and gooseberry bush. Flavour is weird, stale and somewhat acidic. It has lots of metal, some nettles and hints of nuts and mint. Rather weird stuff, feels more like a dunkel or vienna that is too low on roastiness.

50 cl bottle. BBE 05/2012.
Pours dark golden colour with medium head. Aroma of grass, malts, light caramel, nuts and some nettle. Flavour of malts, caramel, metal, grass and some distant biscuits and nuts.
