Had this a few times, it’s another Olaf S. beer. The first couple of times I tried this I found it to be incredibly bitter, not hoppy, but BITTER. I persisted, not sure why, but gradually I found myself getting to like this, a distinctive brew, not sure where you’d get it these days tho!

Bottle. [thank you, Yespr]
Pours a deep brown amber with a small creamy beige head. Aroma is sweet, with caramel, light cocoa and rye bread. Fin, but rather light maouthfeel. Flavour is sweet, rye bread, light alcohol and a lot of caramel. Quite a dry and bitter finish. Very good German - especially considering the ABV!
