Bedingt würziger Antrunk, deutlich herb, es fehlt etwas an Süße. Etwas alkoholisch scharf, gleichzeitig aber auch wässrig und eher unaromatisch. Die Würzigkeit lässt auch im Mittelteil zu wünschen übrig, wenig süß, sehr leicht und direkt wieder verschwindend kräuterartig. Leicht schokoladig, sehr leicht alkoholisch scharf. Danke an den Doppelbock für das Bier. /9/9/9/8/9

Bottle shared by northernbrews at the RBSG Grand Tasting. Thanks, man! Pours a copper color with a medium tan head. Good head retention and lacing. Big toffee aroma with some citrus. The taste is toffee, caramel, citrus and a leafy, bitter hop finish. Full bodied.

12oz bottle pours a transparent, deep copper amber with a ring of creamy white head. Nose is great, cherries, pine, cookie dough, light sherry, grappa. Flavor has faded now, sweet, cookie dough, orange juice, sherry, wood. The flavor is light compared to the nose. Some chocolate too. Finish is lightly astringent but full bodied. Still a touch sticky.

Rating number 400 for this beer. Bottle thanks to thirdeye11. Pours with a small off-white head over a hazy mahogany body. Aroma is fusel (still after all these years) at first, but it blows off, leaving raisins sherry and toffee. Taste is bitter, alcohol, toffee and dark fruits. Light bubbles. Nice!

Sampled from the bottle at the 2010 March Metro Detroit Tasting. A big thanks to Kevin on this one for remembering an earlier tasting when I had said I would love to try this and bring it for me to try! Poured a slightly cloudy dark brown with light yellowish brown head. Aroma had notes of sweet grains with caramel and nuts being present, well balanced. Flavor was similarly balanced but sweet with a nice caramel flavor to start and more of a grain and alcohol finish.

Bottle - thanks dmschefke. A deep auburn color with a finger of creamy beige head. Rich aroma is sweet with citrus, caramel, and toffee. The taste is smooth with aged hops in a citrusy blend with caramel and brown sugar. Elegantly smooth, yet a little bit of citrus hop bite and warming in the tail. I don’t know the exact age, but this has aged like a champ.
