Solid, gingerbready German dark beer. I used to like this style a lot more in the past, but I tend to prefer crisper flavors now. Still, this was a pretty strong example.
Hazy, golden beer. Surprisingly fruity, with orange citrus and wine grape-like notes, and a significant sheen of clove on top. Very assertive, which could have been an issue on any other day but with my St. Patrick's Day leftovers was pretty successful.
A lot less sweet than I thought it would be; starts bready, with a dry molasses character. Curls a bit at the end with a yeasty funk finish, a bit of bitterness. Final flavor is of a slightly sweet wheat cereal malt. Very tasty, less alcoholic and balanced German ale.
