Creamy head smooth carbonation complements its deep mahogany color. Bouquet teems with chocolate, apple and clove. Roasted malts intertwine with the Tettnanger hops to create a depth of complex flavors. Smooth roasted malts and dark caramel leads to clean finish - unlike any other dark beer.

Man, I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to revisit this one - this is a huge case for rerating, because I have no idea what the problem was the last time I had this beer - cloudy dark brown, with a lasting tan head - lovely nose of clove, cocoa, over-ripe fruits, some earthy, wheaty components - manages to be light and full at the same time - a nice tartness in the flavor from start to finish - starts out with mildly acidic fruity character, which quickly makes way for flavors of chocolate, tobacco, and roasted malts - tartness lingers for a long while - a very nice beer {re-rated after many years} Murky brown - zero head - nice aroma of caramel and cloves - tastes, however, like overly bitter cloves, with a slight doppelbockish quality in the background, but not enough to make up for the bitterness - not a terrible experience, but I sure won’t buy this again.
