Tap. Black color with beige head. Aroma is chocolate, light roast, caramel, a touch booze. Taste is chocolate, caramel, very thick, warming finish. Oily mouthfeel with fine-bubbled carbonation. Extremely well-balanced, this is a fantastic Eisbock!

Sampled from tap at Borefts 2018. Pitch black with a beige head. Sweetish-malty, a little fruity aroma of molasses, caramel, some raisins and a touch of vanilla. Rather sweet, malty, a little fruity taste of molasses, caramel, raisins and some vanilla, followed by a medium long, slightly bitter, quite boozy finish. Medium to full body, oily mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Quite nice, less boozy than expected.
