Bottle thanks to the Cotteridge Guys at the 2016 Cotteridge Convention. It pours clear dark amber with a small white head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, malt-driven, umami, toasted malt, sticky, brown bread and malt loaf. The taste is bitter, earthy, woody, dark fruits, tangy, Eccles cake, alcohol boost,treacle and brown sugar with sweet dark fruits on the finish. Medium body, fine carbonation and oily mouth-feel. Decent for the style.

Bottle at CWC II; dark brown pour with a thin light tan head, aroma has sweet jammy fruits, taste has sweet toffee, a hint of nuts, quite boozy.

Bottle shared at the Cotteridge Convention - 2016 edition. Cheers! Pours hazy amber with a creamy topping. Muted aroma, with just touches of dried fruits. Heavy sweet flavour with gooey sugars, bread, caramel, alcohol and light peat. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly warming on the finish, with notes of wood and toasted caramel. Pretty nice.

Tried at Cotteridge, 2. Deep ruby colour with an off tan head. Sweet fruity aroma, malty, with a light malty body.

Cotteridge 2 tasting. Dark brown beer lasting beige head. Malty ok sweet but some dryness. Over carbonated. Not too bad. Some demerara sugar. OK .

Clear chestnut beer under a small, slightly yellowish head. Sweet, chestnuts, alcohol, fusels, leafy (dryish autumn leaves). Unbelievably sweet at first, syrupy, but again with this nutty, bitterish-leafy rounding. Alcohol (what did you expect?) dominating it all. Syrupy feel, sticky, utterly heavy bodied. Convincing to style, even if they managed to make it more sweet than the Germans would have done.

La nouvelle image fait du bien à la bouteille mais le produit, quant à lui, est très "flat", autant aux yeux qu’en bouche. Trop d’alcool en finale mais somme tout très respectable. J’aurais pu facilement confondre avec un genre de scotch ale bien houblonne...

Bottle @ home shared with Dutchdrebus and Ansjelaah. Clear amber reddish color, small beige head. Faint aroma, only get a slight maltyness and some sweetness. Taste lightly malts, sweetness, some alcohol, overripe fruits. Medium to full body, medium carbonation. Quite nice.

Bottle @ benzai. Clear amber colour with a very small sized off-white head. Smells sweet, barley wine, malts. Tastes sweet, barley wine, nuts, bourbon. I like the barley wine taste, so this beer?s fine for me. I?m not too familiar with eisbocks, so I don?t know whether this is a good one. I like the taste though. Medium to full body, soft carbo, slightly thick.

Not that I’ve had many but this isn’t among the better eisbock’s I’ve enjoyed. Pours reddish brown without much head or lacing. Seems a little low in alcohol for style - tastes more like an average barley wine than an eisbock. Smells huge on caramelized malt. Pretty thick consistency as well. Finishes sweet with a note of woody barrel. Bottle.
