Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a red-caramel color with a large creamy orange-tan head that left decent lacing. The aroma was sweet with molasses, malty syrup and toffee. The flavor was sweet molasses, malt syrup, dark fruits and toffee. Medium length finish. Moderately full bodied and smooth. Solid.

Found some old rating notes from TapNY 2013 that somehow never got entered. (I'm keeping this a little shorter than my normal rating style to help catch-up my backlog a little faster.)
An amber colored beer with a strong malty flavor, toffee, toast, and some dark fruit. Solid stuff.

Pours dark amber with ok head and lacing. A little coffee on nose with some of that characteristic doppelbock aroma of sweetened, toffee-like malt. Palate is pretty light here though, and aftertaste only leave a little bitterness and sweetness. Needs more of almost everything. Bottle.

12 oz bottle from TheEpeeist into the Aventinus glass he sent. Nose is toffee, some light chocolate notes, and sweetness. Lightly hazy cherry amber with a medium, very long lasting, heavy lacing head. Flavor is lightly sweet, pruney raisins, and toffee. Finishes lightly sweet.

Bottle from Half Time. Pours a reddish dark amber with a foamy off-white/beige head. Aromas of sweet malt and chocolate. Full bodied with coarsely foamy carbonation. Flavor is toffee/lightly treacle/hint of chocolate. Not a trace of heat. Finish is sweet, but not sickenly so. Good beer for winter evenings.

sucks sucks sucks. how do you like it, how do you like it, this beer, sucks sucks sucks.
Gift from hophead75. No head, ruby red color, lucid. Aroma is pale lager with rotten cherries, oh oh oh and vomit. Taste is icky-sweet caramel malts with long offensive lagered corn. Very light body but sooo not drinkable.
12oz bottle, Rodenbach Grand Cru tulip glass.

Pours medium brown with minimal tan head. Aroma has plenty of malt and caramel with noticeable alcohol, as well. Full, creamy body. Flavor is sweet caramel, malts, dark fruit and alcohol. Finishes sweet with some alcohol. A little too sweet, but not a bad beer.

A deep red beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet alcoholic with strong notes of berries. The flavor is sweet malty combined with notes of caramel, alcohol, and berries, leading to an alcoholic end. Inspite of the high ABV, the body is a bit thin.

Deep amber color with ruby highlights. Malt and caramel aroma, no hops. Sweet almost syrupy. Very smooth coating with alcohol well hidden.
