COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Carnival comes but once a year - and you can only enjoy Sticke beer at Uerige twice a year. It contains more malt and hops and has a higher alcoholic content than normal Altbier. And our guests appreciate it! In earlier days it used to be whispered hand over mouth that Uerige was serving Sticke again because the master brewer had portioned the ingredients too generously. With today's fully-automated operation, this could not happen. So Sticke beer is brewed intentionally - and this certainly doesn't negatively effect either its quality or taste.

The two dates every year are always the same. The third Tuesday in January and October are the two Sticke days.

Allen (2394) - SWITZERLAND - MAY 10, 2010
Bottled 33cl. Surprisingly inviting hop presence in the nose. Great balance between hops and malt throughout. Raisins showing up. Good bitterness. Dry finish. Tasty, delicious, very nicely brewed with a huge amount of character. A gem.

Golden color, medium white head. Aroma of nuts and caramel. Taste is very malty. Straightforward.

FastEddie (228) - Louisville, Kentucky, USA - MAY 1, 2010
Pours a huge tan head which diminishes quickly. The color is a cloudy dark brown, with plenty of bubbles. The body is really good. The taste is that of a fairly hoppy ale.

Black lager tastes and feels generically "wet" with some mild hoppiness. Pretty bland overall. Rated 8/3/09

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - APR 28, 2010
Bottled (from bierkompass.de). Deep rubyish amber colour, mediumsized brown head. Aroma is some caramel malts, crisp bisquits, some nuttyness as well as mildly toasted notes. Flavour is quite floral and grassy hops along with some earth and also mild notes of caramel and alcohol. Also some mild notes of fruityness. Also some mild chocolaty notes in the finish. A very nice strong Alt.

jbrus (4989) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - MAR 28, 2010
Bottle@Home. Very floral aroma which I did not expect. Sweet malts and very bitter. Very hoppy like a Double IPA or something. However it doesn’t compute, the grassy hops and caramel malts. Very dry mouth feel. What style is this supposed to be? I didn’t really dislike it but certainly I’m not a big fan.

DuffMan (4242) - the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, CANADA - MAR 25, 2010
Swing top bottle. Pours a dark hazy amber with a towering bubbly ecru head. aroma is toasty and bready. Flavours are toasty toffee with hints of yeasty fruit and nuts. Moderately bitter finish. Very nice.

(bottle) pours a hazy copper-ruby colour with a frothy dense beige head. aroma of bread, cherries and strawberries, caramel, herbs and light gingerbread spice. flavour is the same, though less fruity, with a long yeasty caramel bitter finish. medium body with smooth carbonation.
