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.

Light white head with a ruby body. Sweet aroma similar to the Stone Double Bastard. Hops and malts are very present in it. Sharp initial taste with a slight caramel flavoring. Some bitterness typical of German beers in the ending.

2006? Pours a copper color with an off-white head. Aroma is of toasted malts, dark fruits, slight roasted malts, and molasses. Flavor is of toffee, caramel malts, slight toasted and roasted malts, molasses, and some dark fruits. I’m glad I came across this beer.

BigBeer45 (934) - Michigan, USA - MAR 22, 2009
Small flip top bottle, popped the top and got a good poof! I was not expecting that, gave a hazy ruby brown pour with a one to two finger off-white creamy foamy head that receded to a thin cover, leaves some lacing on the glass, aroma of bread, faint caramel and grass, flavor of bread, dark bread, some malt sweetness, some fruit, there is a pronounced hop bitterness and dryness on the palate at the finish, hop bitterness lingers for a bit on the tongue to, nice drink.

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.

FishManLA (337) - Abita Springs, Louisiana, USA - MAY 18, 2008
Muddy brown color with a smallish off-white head that dissipates fairly quickly. A little bit of lacing. Clean, simple, malty nose. Dry on that palate with a delicious hoppy bitter taste. Hoppy dry finish.

Bottle 50cl, from Quack-duck thanks a lot ! A clear amber-red beer with good head and lacing. Nose is malty and caramel like. Aroma is malty, toasted, caramel and nutty / coconut notes, medium sweet, nice hops bouquet, floral, chocolate notes, dry fruit hints, long bitterness on aftertaste. A great Alt bier, thanks very much Stephan.
