North America's “Original Steinbier.” Brewed using a traditional German technique, stones heated in our wood fired ovens are lowered into the beer during the brewing process, giving the beer its unique caramel character. Awarded “Three Stars” by Michael Jackson, the world’s leading beer writer.

Had on tap at the brewery.
Not a lot of head, but it isn't flat, I don't know what's up with that, despite that it tries to lace. The body has some slight haze, and is a bronze amber.
The aroma is quite sweet and caramelized, with just a touch of noble hops. Very clean and almost makes me think Märzen.
Taste is actually beautiful. Cramel and nutty notes come through strongly, but it is a lot less sweet than it smells making this very crisp and biscuity, maybe with a touch of honey.
The feel is super drinkable. I'd enjoy a 6 pack of this for sure, but it has a slight warming feeling despite the lighter mouthfeel.
Overall this beer is unique and you should give it a try if you lime malty beers. Not cloying or sweet, and has just a touch of caramelized notes and a whole lot of nutty character.
