500mL can consumed on 11/6/05 with Muzzlehatch and tiggmtl. Beige-auburn with a touch of very light mahogany, crystal clear with an off-white, foamy head that provides light cover but ultimately recedes to a ring with no lacing. Fair amount of large bubbles rise. Aroma is sweet, caramel malt, some touches of corn sugar notes, and a hint of grains. A touch of caramel covered apples. Flavor begins with a surprising amount of real malt notes. Even a touch of light smoke stemming from the toasted grains. Vienna malt graininess is noticeable, as well as a hint of honey and then mostly caramel on the end. Carbonation is forced, of course, but not overabundant, while the texture borders being syrupy, but attains a light wateriness on the very end to ward this off. Alcohol is only lightly apparent. No hops apparency. Yeast does not seem very bocky, more of just a strong vienna. Medium-full body, with little if any flawed notes. Does not have the typical too-quickly-fermented plasticy/corn notes of this brewery’s other beers.

Very dark brown, small creamy tanned head. Toasted malty aroma plus burnt sugar. Roasted malty, carbonated, a bit sweet, bitterish, alcoholic flavor. Nice suprise, I couldn’t think that Faxe can brew this good - certainly underrated here (propably because of the brand).

(Can 50 cl) I always wondered why Faxe doesn’t market their best beer on their home turf. But we still have to go abroad to buy this. Very dark brown - almost cola-coloured. Extremely full-bodied, malty with some nutty notes. Dry without being immensely bitter with a pleasant, balanced sweetness. A very nice beer indeed and rather close to a typical German bock. 261299

A red-brown beer with a small brown head. The aroma is sweet malty - very simple. The flavor is of caramel, roasted bread, and alcohol. Way too sweet.

Dark amber color. Strong caramel character with Porto notes (?). Nothing special, but drinkable.

Dark brown beer with a moka head which collapses quickly. Malt and caramel aroma, with some alcohol. Sweet nutty tatse with light hops , slightly metallic, and some caramel. Medium body which is not too bad for a Faxe. (Can)
