2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Süßer, etwas klebriger Antrunk. Eine leichte Herbe verringert sich schnell, die anderen Aromen schließens ich diesem Trend an und hinterlassen ein wenig intensives Grundaroma. Mit der Herbe kehrt auch die Kelbrigkeit zurück, das zu süße Malz bildet nun den Teil eines immerhin halbwegs würzigen Abgangs, in dem das Bier versucht, jedem recht zu werden. Es ist in Teilen süffig, wird dadurch aber auch wässrig. Auf der anderen Seite ist es würzig, hier aber keinesfalls stark genug. Die zum Ende karamellige Malzigkeit verharrt auf einer zu niedrigen Stufe und klappt am Ende schnell in sich zusammen. 8/9/8/7/7/8

Bottle (aka "Knirpel") Big rocky beige head, amber coloured; dark malt, alcohol and a tinge of roasted malt in the nose, combined with a certain fruitiness; solid sweet-bitter flavour, medium to full bodied; dried fruits, roasted malt and alcohol in the sweetish finish. Not exciting, but quite O.K. .........

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Deep amber pour. The nose is oddly dirty with a kiss of sweet doughy malts. A hint of chocolate and toast as well as a bit of molasses. Sweet with a touch of odd herbal sweetness and a lingering herbal character on the back. I do like it, even though there are a few technical issues with it.
