Bottle courtesy of milsem. Pours hazy dark brown with yellow highlights, small creamy offwhite head that leaves some very sparse trace on the glass while dissiapting. Smell is malty, slightly fruity and slightly earthy with dark bread, caramel, banana, raisins, prunes, leather, moist soil, cloves and lemon zest. Taste is sweet, bitter, very tiny sour, malty, fruity and tiny spicy. Mouthfeel is round, tiny dry, tiny tart, tiny boozy and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and tiny sour with caramel, banana and heavy leathery oxidation. Most likely way past its prime given the oxidation. Still drinks ok though.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy amber with a medium beige head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is caramel and dark fruit. Thin mouthfeel with a sweet malt and nice boozey finish. Very good.

750mL bottle, split several ways, pours a dark, dark amber brown with a small beige head. Was uncertain as to how this would have stood up over time given the style. Aroma of toasted nuts, caramel and grainy malt - very inviting. Flavour of toasted nuts, toasted malt and toffee. A little muffled, but also full-bodied and with a beautiful body. This has definitely held up and is a nice deviation from the other Decadence beers in terms of style. Excellent indeed.

Malzig-würziger Antrunk auf hohem Niveau. Bananig, trocken, steigendes Malz, das einen süßlichen Unterton hat. Vollmundig, geringe Herbe. Das Malz ist durchgängig stärkstes Aroma und gefällt dabei absolut, das Bier ist cremig, vollmundig und komplex gleichzeitig. Die Bananigkeit fährt zurück, die Hopfigkeit steigt dagegen deutlich. Hefig, man schmeckt den Alkohol heraus, er stört aber nicht. Runder komplexer Weizenbock, der ganz oben mitspielt! 12/13/12/14/12/13

Deep dark brown coloured body with a hazy, muddy brown and ruby glow, all with a relatively thin tan and light-brown head. Aroma of strong alcohol, malt, pit fruits, earth, nuts and a decent amount of yeast. Pungent full-bodied; Strong yeast and alcohol flavours dominate with a lot of wheat and malt, prunes, pears and some spices touching as well. Aftertaste is potent and deep with the fruit and alcohol taking centre stage - a earthy bit at the end and some nuttiness noticeable, but the alcohol and pit fruits dominate. Overall, a nice and pungent beer with good flavours abound and a sweet, yet strong finish. I sampled this 75 cL bottle complete with gold top, purchased from the Olive Tree MarketPlace in San Diego, California on 09-February-2011 sampled camping in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia in July 2011.
