12 oz bottle poured into a pint glass

Pours a nice rich amber color with a finger of healthy white foam that sits upon the beer for several minutes. Looks great. Aroma is mostly malty, some DMS and grainy/husky aromas.

First sip is quite malty, with a nice munich/crystal sweetness and substantial body. Hoppiness is minimal. Very easy drinking despite the sweetness and viscosity of the mouthfeel. Overall very nice. I'd get a six pack of this.

Slightly hazy amber in the Duvel tulip. No sediment in the botle. Bought at Texas Wine in Fredericksburg in the 12 oz bottle. Light grainy aroma.

The malty sweetness seems to be cut by a slight sourness. Caramel and fementing apples. A touch of hoppiness at the ending with some bitterness and an earthy aftertaste. Not the most refreshing amber I've had. I am just not a Magic Hat enthusiast. Everything I've tried seems kind of murky and odd, but not an interesting sort of oddness. At least it wasn't reviewed as an Oktoberfest, which it doesn't resemble.
