I had 2 different years and the latter was far below the other. The first was terrific. I'm not sure if it was the brewers or stores mess up.
I'm reviewing the one I enjoyed.
By the way this is still being made. I lived a couple miles from the place for 2 years. They still make the two beers on here and quite a few others. The Weihnachsbier is one of my favorites.
I can't say I remember much of the beer now. It was grainy which is typical for the area. However they do a nice job of balancing which is sadly not always typical.

Found in a grocery store somewhere on the edge of the Austrian Alps. The standard brown half liter bottle sports a green and gold label with a red and white shield above the name. No ingredient information. Best before 1/24/08, I bought it at the end of February (oops!) and opened it on 3/5/08.

Pours a clear light burgundy under a very short-lived half finger light tan head that manages to disappear almost completely without a trace. (Wonder if that is due to age...) The nose is mild, with caramel and nut tones. The mouth is fairly light and reasonably prickly. The taste is still quite good - sweet caramel, a bit of malt, and a nice if not overpowering espresso dry bitter. The syrup sweetness and coffee bitter blend well together and last well after the swallow, making for quite a nice overall impression. Not bad at all.
