Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Bottle looks simple but really nice! Beer in the glass amber coloured, small head. Intense spicy aroma. Starts spicy-malty, light fruity sourish background, some berries, some lemon. Finish well balanced, metallical malty. Okay.

Grainy fruity beginning. Easy to drink, grainy with a fruity back. Hints of grain with caramel, soft bitter, nice. Thanks HP

Dunkler, röstig-hopfiger Beginn. Passend trocken, deutliche Bitterkeit, sehr süffig. Die Röstigkeit bleibt intensiv, dabei bitter-grasig, ein Hauch von Alkohol. Spritzig, konstant, intensiv, langer Nachhall - gut. 10/12/10/12/9/11

330ml bottle. Slightly cloudy, redd-ish, amber colour with average, frothy, osteoporosing, off-white head. Zesty, citrusy fruity hoppy and slightly sugary, caramel malty aroma, hints of lemon, orange, mandarine. Taste is slightly dry, zesty, citrusy fruity hoppy, minimally sugary, caramel malty with a touch of peanut, hints of mandarine, lemon, orange, dry, papery, minimally mineral overtones. Watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Quite homebrew-ish, not really state of the art - disappointing.

330ml bottle. Minimally milky, amber colour with average to huge, frothy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, off-white head. Fruity and minimally herbal, hoppy and somehow grainy-biscuity, malty aroma, hints of apple, a touch of woodruff, dark spritz biscuits. Taste is mineral and chalky, bitter hoppy, minimally zesty, citrusy fruity, a touch of grapefruit peel, apple undertones, biscuity malty basis with low residual sweetness and a touch of dark spritz biscuits again; diluted hints of mandarine peel in the finish. Watery texture, dry palate, medium to coarse, lively carbonation. Not just homebrew-ish, even homebrew beginner-ish - didn't expect that nowadays such a bad APA could be available on the market.

330ml bottle. Slightly cloudy, ruby colour with average to huge, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, sulphureous head. Sweet-ish, caramel malty and fruity, hoppy aroma, hints o fcaramel, a touch of milk chocolate, red berries. Taste is initially sweet-ish, caramel malty, bitter, leafy hoppy middle part, again more sweet-ish, fruity and slightly alcoholic in the last third, opens with hints of caramel, ends with hints of red berries; minimally warming, alcoholic finish. Watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium to fine, mildly prickly carbonation. A bit weird and disharmonious, not much Bock character - not bad nevertheless.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, brown colour with average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, dark beige to tan head. Chocolately and slightly roasty, dark malty as well as slightly fruity and minimally spicy aroma, notes of cocoa, some milk chocolate, plum, whiffs of coffee, cinnamon. Taste is chocolately and slightly roasty dark malty, diluted notes of dry cocoa, cocoa powder, a fruity touch of apple, minimally metallic finish. Watery texture, minimally dry palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Very promising nose, quite watery taste, nice composition but sadly too light to unfold the full potential - enjoyable.

Trockener herber Beginn, Noten von roten Beeren, das Malz ist unauffällig im Hintergrund. Süffig, leicht bitter, die Süße bleibt überraschend schwach. Langer, bitter hopfiger Abgang, Karamell, etwas nussig. 8/11/10/9/6/10
