Im Glas ist es schön braun-trüb. Schöner Geruch nach reifem Apfel, Sirup, Malz. Der Antrunk ist frucht-säuerlich und sehr vollmundig. Im Antrunk kommt ein schönes volles Aroma reifer Äpfel zur Geltung, gepaart mit schönen dunklen Malztönen. Im Hauptteil ist das Bier noch etwas apfelsäuerlicher, aber dazu angenehm mild-süßlich und vollmundig schokoladig-malzig. Der Nachgeschmack ist überhaupt nicht mehr säuerlich, sondern schön röstmalzig-schokoladig mit angenehm leicht-herber Note. Von der auf der Flasche versprochenen starken Herbe ist leider nichts zu schmecken.
--> Ein sehr komplexes Bier, das aber etwas weniger säuerlich und dafür etwas herber sein könnte. Trotzdem ganz lecker! Test vom 6.10.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 12,10,11,10,12,10 - 10,45

33 cl. bottle sampled @ Braustelle. Dark brown with a big tanned head. Nose is huge campfire, lots of BBQ smoke, light roast, touch meaty smoke, light herbal & faint coffee. Taste is sweet malts, upfront followed by bitter herbs, lots of kindled wood, meaty smoke, BBQ, campfire, touch herbs, plenty of wood, faint herbs. Thick malty body, great smoked brew. Is there any consistency to this beer? Almost every review seems to talk about a different brew with probably quite a few of them being infected. Mine was a wonderful smoked beer.

Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass dark, almost black, nice head. Starts intense malty, fine roasty, hints of earth and coffee, notes of liquorice. Finish drier, but still well balanced and quite drinkable. Nice!

330ml bottle. Hazy darkest brown colour with huge, frothy, diminishing, minimally lacing, tan head. Grainy, minimally smokey aroma, hints of grassy hop. Taste is initially grainy, minimally earthy, then light, almost fruity, slightly floral hoppy overtones come in, nice smokey note in the finish.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dagan’s place. Thanks Oren. Clear dark brown. Slightly sourish aroma with a bit of malt and fruitiness. Sweet flavor with some caramelly malt, chocolate hints, fruity notes and sourish notes. Finishes dry. Medium-bodied. OK, a bit weird.
