Now brewed at Fulton. Website description: "Using Munich malts and traditional Saaz hops, the new Gluek beer pairs the best of German craftsmanship with high-quality American ingredients....a new recipe inspired by old world tradition and made for today's well rounded drinker."

Sounds great....quality brewer using Munich malts, Saaz hops, etc. What could go wrong? We'll it's not terrible but there is a bit of a spoiled egg impression to this....would never in a million years confuse this with a Czech beer. It has a bit of a slightly toasted maltiness and is definitely better than the Cold Spring brewed version of yesteryear but I won't buy this one again and I'm kind into nostalgic beer brands of the past.
