Bottle picked up from the Brewery/Gasthof, yesterday and consumed at home Sunday 1st November 2020 listening to Rival Consoles - Howl and having cooked (still cooking) Belgian Beef Carbonnade. Pours clear chestnut in colour, super clarity with a huge billowing off white head. Nutty on the nose and a little nutty in the mouth, soft mouthfeel, light fruity and caramel. Good and better than the Doppelbock.

Dark ruby with little beige head. Aroma is chestnut, roast, walnuts, burnt caramel Taste is some wet hop with roast bitterness and slight syrupy sweetness. Only shallow with thin body and not so smooth, so "meh" despite doing nothing actually wrong.

500ml bottle [Thanks Maddie!]. Clear, faint, chestnut colour with average, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Grainy, dark malty aroma with hints of milk chocolate and a touch of silage. Taste is slightly sweet dark malty, hints of malt lozenge, a touch of treacle, milk chocolate, mildly bitter hoppy counterweight.
