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.

Gr0ve (1756) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUL 16, 2006
330 ml bottle. Amber coloured with a grayish note to it. No head. Subdued barleywine-like aroma. Musty apple and caramel. Pear syrup and a little vanilla. Noble hops are clearly being used as it infuses the beer with a very gentle, but noticeable, hop flavour. Medium-bodied, and not at all sweet. It’s quite dry actually, with a well done hop bitter finish.

Dark brown pour with a half finger beige head. Bottle was a bit of a gusher. Aroma is grainy with some light fruity esters and a nutty note. Flavor is roasty malt grain, light nectar fruit, and ogeat. Dry and fruity. Palate is medium with a semi-dry, sweet and coating finish that lingers with sweet nutty malted barley. Pretty unique and delicious.

On tap at the brickstore. Pours a clean brown color with a big off white head that fades fast. Aromas of big malt, caramel, and bread. As it warms the texture of this thing gets really grainy and chewy malt. Pretty dry with a hint of bittering hops on the finish. The story here though is the malt and grain experience which is well worth the time and money on this one.

Bouteille achetée à Brulington et partagée avec Patrick. Swing-top de 11,2 oz. Cette bière est cuivrée foncée à la limite du ambrée, je n’ai pas aperçue de mousse. La bouche est bien maltée avec des notes de caramel et une touche grillée. Les houblons nobles offrent une belle touche aromatique. Le liquide prend de l’expansion en bouche. On retrouve les notes grillées du nez et bien sur toute l’amplitude des malts. La finale est toute en caramel.

Bottle. Low pop when opened. Poured a deep amber body with thin ehad. Aroma is malt, fruity hops, light caramel. Flavor is caramel, strong fruity hops, sweet taste. The fruitiness was not too strong but I could not place a finger on what this reminded me of. Nice beer.

Amber color with a medium off-white head. Aroma is bready and fresh with some molasses in the nose. Flavor is like taking a big bite of fresh bread - some nice sweetness in there thats balanced well with a nice helping of hops. Good Alt!
