3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draft at redlight redlight. Pours a cloudy amber with a lacy off-white head. Mild but pleasant nose. Lots of grain and hay, hints of sour mash. The flavor is likewise mild but exceedingly smooth and drinkable. A little sweet but bitter enough to be very well balanced. Great session beer.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
.33L bottle, 11 month old. Pours amber color with foamy, white, long lasting head. Good lacing, some carbonation. Aroma of hops and caramel malt. Light to medium body, tangy at first then somewhat sweet. Moderate earthy hops dominate the flavor with caramel malt, brown sugar and dark fruit provide some balance. Long earthy hops finish. Decent brew but, personally, I would prefer local hoppy ambers. Maybe I’ll try a fresher bottle next time.

UPDATED: MAR 21, 2010 Oak cask. Uerige pub. Alstadt, Dusseldof. Where else? Deep copper color. Very hoppy. Good fruit, with a bit of caramel, roasted amber malt, earth. Dry hop and roasted malt finish. Great stuff. Hoppiest yet, but very good malt as well. The best alt in the world.
4.6 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Das obergärige Spezial Alt wird aus Gersten,- Karamell- und Röstmalz gebraut. Es ist das an Bitterstoffen reichte Bier Deutschlands.
Das bernsteinfarbene Bier duftet zart nach Malz, schmeckt trotz der Bitterkeit ausgewogen und verabschiedet sich mit einem zarten Rauchton. Ein perfektes Alt!
Alkohol: 4,7 %

2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottled 50cl. Courtesy of pivnizub. Appearance: Nut brown with a a decent light beige head. Mediocre sticky spotty lace. Aroma: Some banana showing up in the nose which is mainly nutty. Flavor and palate: Sweet. Quite a lot of banana showing up again. Surprisingly salty. Creamy palate. Salty finish which is reminiscent of banana, walnut and marshmallow. Overall impression: Salty, banana accentuated in my opinion. I didn’t enjoy this beer that much. Dissapointing. Thanks a lot pivnizub!
