"Frigus" Eisbock, Fläschchen (MHD: Nov. 2026) von Getränke Hörl, Altomünster, 23.10.2025. - Dunkles Rotbraun, schmutzig trüb, dürftiger Schaum. - In der Nase fettes, überschweres dunkles Malz, satte Melanoidine bis hin zu Anklängen an Lakritz (oder Maggi), nur leichte Hopfenherbe. - Antrunk erdrückend stark konzentriert dunkelmalzig mit Anklängen an Rumrosinen, Lakritz, Weinbrand und Möbelpolitur. Das Etikett spricht von "Bitterschokolade, Pflaume und Karamell mit zart rauchiger Note" - die rauchige Note kann ich bestätigen, von den restlichen Aromen ist nicht viel übrig, nur noch ein Restchen zitrusfruchtiger Hopfung. Mild rezent, mastig, deutlich alkoholisch. - Zu mächtig, zu lakritzbetont und zu "alt" im Geschmack: dieser Eisbock ist kein großer Genuß.

Bottle with Munich Ratebeer Tasting group and consumed at Jonas's 2nd August 2022. Pours a little hazy brown in colour with little to no head, a little leathery, light smokiness, fruity, sweetness, good eisbock, perhaps lacks a little complexity, some beef stock. Good.
