NaturalIce (115), originally from Michigan, New York, USA Sep 8, 2008 12 oz bottle - Aroma mainly consists of a thick malty yeast with a touch of honey. The flavor is also with a hearty honey taste that lasts. Not as bitter as I usually like. Good alcohol % but you wouldn’t even know it. Not my favorite style of beer but would drink again. scoth (267), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA Sep 7, 2008 Pours copper and clear, with a medium white head, little lacing. Subtle aroma, a bit like pineapple and cashews. Medium body, satisfying and smooth. Nutty and caramel flavor, malt is subdued, lingering pine hop aftertaste. stchloe (477), Portland, Oregon, USA Sep 7, 2008 An overpriced session. Wonderfully mediocre without an identifying flavor. Better than domestic. gbdub (73), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA Sep 6, 2008 Pours clear copper/amber with fizzy head. Aroma is sweet, fruity, caramel malt. Sweet honey malt flavor ending with a nice pine hop bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel. Tasty. Chrism86 (273), Melbourne, Australia Sep 5, 2008 Updated: Sep 6, 2008Pours hazy honey tending amber with tan head. Nose displays dark fruits and some sweet toffee malt. Palate is more of the same, with caramel/toffee malt notes dominating and hinting honey driving a long malty finish. GMUcrew7 (353), Mason, Ohio, USA Sep 5, 2008 Pours translucent copper color with creamy colored head. Has a sweet malty aroma. Flavor is more complex, starts out with the obvious malts, accompanied by nuts, honey and has a very nice balanced piney hop finish. Has a nice creamy palate, an enjoyable brew. flatmatt (221), Northville, Michigan, USA Sep 5, 2008 22 oz bottle. Pours slightly orange amber with a medium white head that disappers quickly. Aroma is a mix of piney and citrus hops with caramel. Flavor is caramel, hops, nutty, bready, honey. Interesting beer, pretty nice. dolemite77 (184), Maryville, Tennessee, USA Sep 4, 2008 Pours deep copper color with a soft fluffy head. Aroma isn’t much to speak of, some malt, musty hops. Flavor is sweet, and I think is the best part of the beer. Not that it’s all that complex or mind blowing, but it has about the right sweetness for a german-style beer, and the hops linger on the back end. Malt is definitely the biggest player in this one.
