Drank on the best by date.
L: Pours brilliant dark amber to mahogany under a 1” dirty cream colored foam cap that grips the side of the glass.
S: Clean aromas with grain and toasted malt aromas.
T: Starts dry with dark malts, slightly nutty, and then some light sweetness arises leading to a tart finish with lingering dark malt flavors.
F: Creamy, medium to medium light body, medium carbonation.
O: Pretty much nails the Dusseldorf alt style.

Appearance: Clear amber, big head.
Smell: Toffee, toasted bread, touch of fruitiness.
Taste: Toasted bread, earthy, mild underlying sweetness.
Overall: Picked up a single, I figured it had a better chance of still being fresh than the other Mankato bottle. Not a bad beer but not in my favorite flavor profile , malty and earthy. A good beer for a change-up in the wintertime. I'll have to keep an eye out for other Mankato offerings.

A - Poured out a clear, copper color with a two-finger, khaki colored head of foam. It left thin sheets of lace on the glass.
S - Floral with some malt and caramel.
T - Spicy up front with caramel, toffee and maltiness.
M - It was crisp, sharp and smooth. A light bodied lager.
O - Nice altbier. I like my first Mankato beer.

Picked up a single at Four Firkins. Ah, what a nice surprise, a very tasty sticke from Mankato. This mahogany beer had a milder caramel malt and light spice aroma, but really opened up in the flavor. It was a mix of caramel malt and mild cherry and berry esters, with a dry toasty edge, and then the herbal hop bite. It's on the cleaner side of the style, but a very tasty example. Check this beer out.
