Real raspberries abound in this chocolate caramel after dinner treat. Aged for a smooth texture and drinkability. This lager beer will handle additional age very well.

Dang dangerously smooth abv with raspberry juice vibes interwoven perfectly with light chocolate cake vibes but still not heavy smooth lager body.

Poured from 12.7 fl oz bottle (2017 vintage; thanks beerplace). Murky dark brownish red with very minimal white head. Lots of jammy raspberry, dark chocolate, alcohol hidden. Tastes like chocolate covered raspberry candies. Long sipper due to the sweetness. Good, but I think it may be a couple years past peak aging.

Pour is a murky brown red with no head at all. Aroma is raspberry puree with some chocolate. Flavor is again a heavy raspberry with some chocolate and dark fruit. This is a thick as black strap molasses but there was no alcohol. Probably took at least 15 minutes to drink the 2 oz sample but this is well worth seeking out. So much raspberry but the chocolate underneath it was stellar as well. GTMW 2021.

From a 6 oz bottle at a bottle share. Aromas of raspberries. Flavors are raspberries and some card board. Vintage 2007 probably past its prime but nice.

A long time in coming waiting for this beer. Raspberry, chocolate. 14 years old this one. Some fig, some booze. A little rust. Boozy sweet finish. 6oz bottle came from a funeral apparently.

Shared at Dangerous Bottleshare #8. Pours cloudy reddish brown with no haed. Aromas of sweet cherries, raspberries, caramel, chocolate, vanilla, liquor filled chocolate sweets, barley notes, light boozy heat. Taste is pretty jammy, sweet raspberries, chocolate, port wine, oaky dry, vanilla and some alcohol that does not do in any way harm this delicious brew! Very unique.

2007 small bottle from Schroppfy, thanks! Very dark pink color. Raspberry icecream and caramel in the aroma. Full bodied. Very sweet, caramelly but also slightly tart and alcoholic. Some earthy hops in the background. Mint in the aftertaste. Way off the beaten track. In my opinion not a top 50 beer, but indeed a very interesting beer.
