Altbier
While watching LSU vs. MS State... I poured this beer into my Yazoo Hefeweizen pint glass which has a picture of the Yazoo brew with a GABF gold medal haging around the WEizen glass. Sadly the beer I am having now will not garner such honors. Best Before Date: DEC 2007 After a vigourous pour there was barely a 1/2 finger head showing. It didnt last long at all. The beers pours a murky rusty amber. No lacing. The aroma was faint but not off putting. It had hints of malt sweetness. The taste was ok. Sweet munich malt present that is nice. It finishes with a weird earthy lingering bitterness that doesnt seem quite appropriate. Despite virtually no carbonation, it has a very light mouthfeel. It is very crisp, bordering on "lagerish". This does not help the flaor of the beer at all. I dont want to have this beer again. It is not overly offputting, but it is still hard to finish. It doesnt seem to be a very well constructed beer; not much flavor and slightly muddled.
