Notes from August 2009 7.5%ABV bottle into my slender & top heavy Rare Vos glass. Might as well get some use out of it before it falls over itself & shatters. Big powdery head, though quite faint & not big on sticking around. Body is a glittery caramel amber with lots of floaties. Nose is big on juicy melon & bitter orange. Spicy/sweet pungent hop notes, with a little bit of honey & straw. Really inviting. Taste is sweet with lemon, orange, & honey upfront. Light leafy bitterness down the middle, with an easy, dry cookie finish. Feel is thin & plenty carbonated. The malt is just barely a touch filling. Maybe just a bit lighter then it should be. Endgame is dry & just barely lingering with alcohol & hops. Really eager to see if BigTex sent me two of these. Though it has been in the fridge most of the time, sitting on this one far too long apparently worked out for me. :)

Tap at the Ginger Man, Houston, 21/05/13. Clear golden with a thin off white head. Nose is malt forward, fruit, caramel. Taste comprises dark malts, toffee, sugar, fruits. Medium bodied, light booze in a sweetish finish. Pretty average - lacks depth for a 7.5% offering. Whelmed!

Sampled at Texas Beerfest. Pours a cloudy orange copper with a small frothy white head that leaves decent spotty lacing along the glass. The aroma is a sweet floral hop and wheat. Medium mouthfeel with a sweet hop and honey flavor. Easy to drink, a very good heller bock from Rahr.

Bottled. A golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma is sweet with powerful notes of malt and medium notes of alcohol. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, alcohol, and metal. Way too simple. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.
