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.

Quack-Duck (5601) - Down South, GERMANY - DEC 16, 2008
bottle, díky pivnizube! Dark brwon colour, slightly hazy, medium-sized beige head. Intensive malty nose. Full-bodied, intensively malty and hoppy at the same time. Typical Altbier flavours, but more intensive than usual. Hints of chocolate, nuts and raisins. Resiny-grassy hops balance this off. A delicious brew.

DonMagi (5599) - bantervile, Bedfordshire, ENGLAND - JAN 22, 2008
Bottle from manchester winter beer fest, thanks to ronnie. Dated 11/01-21/02? Aroma was quite minimal, nutty malts, bittering hop and notes of alcohol. Taste is similar quite a bit of bittering hop, as you expect from these chaps the hoppiest of all the alts, drinkable enough. However not a scratch on the normal alt. This was bottled which is almost a fake rating for a alt, it should over ever be had from wooden cask in dusseldorf.

330ml swingtop bottle poured a clear amber with a lasting light amber head. Aromas of dates, brown sugar and bread. palate was light bodied. Flavors of carmel, a bit of toffee, raisins and a hint of brown sugar with a smooth lingering bittersweet finish.

duff (5483) - St, Margarets, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUN 18, 2004
Bottle. Cool looking bottle. Really thin neck with a swing top cap. Well, i always thought it was perhaps going to be a little bit stale. Motelpogo said to me that alts are always better from the source, and i will take his word for it. Even though this was a little stale, there was still alot to be pleased about. Soft toffee malts. Grassy, herbal hops in the finish, nice, soft, dry palate. Very nice, if a little stale.

Light amber pour. Nice caramel note up front, some fruitiness, and bread. Flavor is sweet, caramel, light hops. Pretty good stuff.

Skinnyviking (5472) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - OCT 9, 2010
Bottle. High creamy and lasting off-white head. Clear brown body. Roasted barley malt aroma and flavor with some spicyness and a nice hops bitternessw. Low carbonation, long sweet aftertaste.

BückDich (5468) - McCall, Idaho, USA - JUL 4, 2008
Bottle: Pours a dark mahogany color with a light white head and nice bubbly lacing. Clean mild sugars and caramel malts, plums, nice light melanoidins and a subtle roastiness that blends all this sweetness and light noble hops together. Balanced malty mouthfeel. Creamy body and a smooth mouthfeel. Meaty and juicy altbier.

Cornfield (5239) - Oak Forest, Illinois, USA - DEC 7, 2004
UPDATED: JUL 12, 2005 Deep amber-red color with a minimal off-white head, this has a nifty nutty sweet malt aroma with a healthy smattering of earthy hops thrown in. Solid roasted malt flavor, not real sweet, with a good hop counterbalance. Even better than their regular alt.
