Ciemnobrunatne praktycznie przezroczyste piwo z mizerną pianą. Aromat suszonych owoców głównie rodzynki, trochę alkoholowe. W smaku podobnie tylko bardziej wyraziste. Potężny doppelbock

Dark ruby brown, with caramel and dark fruit aroma. As syrupy as it gets! Malt, dates, underlying boozy taste followed by cloying malty finish. Not sure what style this actually should fall under.

Never been a fan of normal Samichlaus but let's see. Neck label says 2022. 10ºC was good to start but probably warmed too much. Very dark brown, a tan head just survives the pour. Aroma of chocolate, strong bread, dried fruit. Overtly boozy with dried fruit, brown sugar, some spices, a little bitterness. Lacks body and depth but OK.

Bottle at home. Dark. Town pour and smallish head. Nose is dark fruit and caramel. Tastes of caramel, dried fruits, hint of brandy, vanilla, leather. Rich mouthfeel. Malty finish. Not too boozy.

The aroma is very strong, with notes of barrel and lightly roasted malt and chocolate. Notes of barrel and liqueur sweetness, along with caramel, are present, but still quite refined. The colour is dark but not black, with almost no head and a slightly oily body. The palate immediately reveals alcoholic undertones. Balanced sweetness, caramel, notes of cake, and honey. A hint of dried fruit and spices. The finish is even more focused on caramel and honey, with a hint of molasses. Spices return, but to a lesser extent, with a light malty and burnt flavour of dark chocolate, perhaps even coffee beans, along with notes of dried fruit. Overall, a top-class beer.

Аромат очень сильный. Прежде всего ощущается йод, также немного бочки и как будто слегка под жареного солода с нотками шоколада, нотки от бочки и сладости от ликера с карамельной составляющей, пирог а конечно алкоголь, но при этом весьма благородный. Цвет темный, но не черный, пенки почти нету, тело слегка маслянистое. Вкус сразу с алкогольным оттенком, который сильно не портит впечатление по существу. Сразу много сбалансированной сладости от ликера, включая карамель, что то вроде пирога а также мед. Немного йода и сухофруктов со специями. Послевкусие еще больший акцент на карамель и мед с присутствием патоки. Снова специи, но уже меньше, легкое присутствие солода и его жжености от шоколада черного а может даже и зерен от кофе, намеки на сухофрукты. В целом топ, но его брат Баррик был еще лучше и слаще.

Bottle pour shared by ClarkVV--thanks, Clark! Clear cola brown, no head, no lacing. Aroma is roasted malt, caramel, toffee. Taste is strong caramel, dark fruit, cloyingly sweet sugary candy. Smooth texture, finish as taste. Too sweet and mild alcohol burn.

12 oz bottle thanks to Clarkvv! Rome is raisin, toffee and mild sugar. Flavor is caramelized malt with a lot of dark fruit. Raisin, prune, again caramelize sugar. Not super sweet, but still sweet, never the less.

2022 330mL bottle drunk 1/11/25.
Clear ruby-auburn. Dark. Clear. Small, light-tan head to ring quickly.
Rich malt with good acidity. A bit of roast, but tons of burnt caramel, light vanilla. Not boozey. Bit of banana and circus peanut from the yeast.
Rich, sweet, some light roast, lots of circus peanut. Not elegant, to say the very least. But it's not thin, at least. There is malt texture here. Lingering pepper and acidity. I don't hate it, even if I don't respect it.
