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.

bottle-thanks whaleman for the recomendation! pours copper with a small soapy off-white head and sparse lacing. aromatically, this beer has alot of complexity for the style-carmel, cheeries, fresh cut wood, toasty maltness, some faint cinammon, and spice chracacter with some nice chocolate notes. nice body-full and slick. flavors are very malty, chocolate, light bitterness from some earthy hops. very nice and probably the best alt i have ever had!

BDR (2535) - Roseville, Minnesota, USA - MAY 6, 2007
Light brown color with a water scent of faint malt. Bitter hop body that didn’t satisfy after the Doppel Sticke. Bitter finish.

SpringsLicker (2486) - Tennessee, USA - AUG 23, 2004
UPDATED: AUG 27, 2004 Deep glowing brown color, almost cola-like with a minimal tan head that settles into an off white ring at the top of the glass. The aroma is like toasted mashmallows. Caramel flavor with just a touch of bitterness in the finish. Light bodied with a medium mouthfeel. An easy drinking brew.

TURDFERGUSON (2482) - Carrboro, North Carolina, USA - DEC 26, 2006
Bottle from my secret santa. Thanks! Pours a dark golden brown with a small white head. Aromas of honey and sweet malts, with some dark fruit notes in there. Taste is bitter and sweet, with generous earthy and bready notes. Doesnt leave an offensive taste on the palate, but it doesnt really excite me either. A well done beer for what it is, but still not my favorite thing to consume. Easy drinking.

Deep amber out of the bottle with only a film for a head. Bottle says "Bottled on 29.04." Fruity notes with lots of toast and caramel sweetness. The finish is a little watery. Nice hop bitterness in the finish. Tastes a little like underdone home brew.

Pour is a dark brown with a big soapy looking head. Aroma is wonderful. Very bready and dark fruits with s ton of malt. Flavor is also very nice. Some rasions and plum with toffee and caramel mixed in. Very tasty and prob one of the best alt’s i have ever had.
