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.

elihapa (1369) - Honolulu, Hawaii, USA - JUN 26, 2009
Bottle, Wurstkuche. Pours amber-brown with a large white head. Aroma is very grassy and herbal, suggesting significant European hops (Saaz, Hallertau) in this brew. Flavor starts with herbs and earthiness upfront, moving nimbly towards a balanced mid-body of malt and dry bitterness. Finish leans dry and semisweet. A solid altbier.

TheCaptain (613) - Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 28, 2008
Pop top bottle- Amber brown pour with a tan foam head. Aroma of brown sugar, dark fruits, caramel. Smooth on the palate and malty but with a bit of a dry aftertaste and tinge of bitters. Good Alt and good flavor, a little bitter and earthy on the back end.

jjuf1853 (953) - Land O Lakes, Florida, USA - MAY 4, 2009
On tap at Oldsmar Tap House. Pours a slightly murky brown color with an off-white head. Biscuity malt aroma mixed with an assortment of spices. Low carbonation with a creamy mouthfeel. Good mixture of flavors with caramel and malt sweetness in the forefront. Nice aftertaste.

lithy (2913) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 21, 2008
Hazy golden orange brown color with a finger of off white head. Nutty, fruity, yeasty breadiness and malt. Body is heavy malts, more plums and almond nuttiness. Then a slight bitter finish.

nickd717 (3242) - San Francisco, California, USA - MAY 26, 2009
Bottle from City Beer in SF. Pours dark brown with a large, lasting off-white head. Malty aroma with caramel and brown sugar. Flavor is lots of caramel malt, oak, very slight fruity notes, and mild hops. Smooth palate, medium-full body. Good for the style.

Leighton (3595) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - MAY 24, 2010
Tap at Ginger Man. Pours amber with a soft, white head. Nose holds some earthy hops, along with hints of lightly toasted malts. Flavor is mildly sweet, with some caramel malts, along with some hints of fruit and earthiness. Medium in body and well carbonated. Finish is outrageously dry. An interesting - and pretty good - beer.

330 ml bottle. From bierkompass.de.
Dark reddish brown colour with small off-white head. Caramel sweetness, molasses and mildly roasted malt in aroma. Dark fruits, caramel malt and bitter hops in flavour. Very good and interesting Altbier.
