Bottled. A dark amber beer with a medium tan head. The aroma is sweet malty with strong notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel, but also a light note of straw, leading to a dry bitter finish. The body is a bit thin. Thanks yespr.

(Bottle 50 cl) Weak in alcohol but rich in flavor. Almost mahogany color. Malty and quite hoppy. I’m not an expert on "Alt" but this seems to be a typical representative. 011203

Bottle, 4.2%. Hint of sweet malt in aroma. Clear dark chestnut colour. Small light brown head. The flavour is quite roasted, getting a little citric. Hint of soy. The mouthfeel is a little thin.
