Fruchtig süßer, erkennbar alkoholisch hopfiger Antrunk. Milde Herbe, blumig. Geringe Karbonisierung, der Hopfen kommt so besser zur Geltung. Leicht nach Honig, zum Ende bitterer, hell würzig. Gut! 11/12/12/12/9/12

Waxed bottle pours with a deep dark brown body that supports a thin tan head of foam. The aroma is huge with cinnamon and coffee and then a good load of dark roasted malts where there’s a pretty nice chocolate note hanging around at the end of the draw. The taste starts with an even yet bold mix of cinnamon and coffee that barrel into some dark roasted malts, sweetened burnt malts and a pleasing dose of chocolate. On the palate this comes across kind of thin but in no way is this thin on flavor. Cool brew.

Poured from a 22 oz bottle. Aroma is full of milk chocolate and lactose with a light roast and vanilla character. Hints of dark fruit. Pours black with a small, fairly thin, dark mocha head that recedes quickly to the edges where a small film lingers. Light lacing and small legs. Flavor is rather sweet and lactose forward with a lot of milk chocolate along with some bitter, dark chocolate. Medium light vanilla character. Light roast with moderate bitterness and faint dark fruit notes. Hints of alcohol. Mouthfeel is full bodied and creamy with medium low carbonation. Low to medium low astringency and low to medium low carbonation. Overall, an alright beer but I am not very impressed by it. I find the astringency and bitterness off putting and the vanilla is not very noticeable. The finish just isn’t creamy and sweet like I would expect from the beer.
