22 fl oz bottle, courtesy of Plovmand. Pours dark brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is cocao, coffee and dark toffee malt. Vanilla dense and dark roasted malty flavoured. Bitter and dry, rather persisting vanilla into the finish. Ends dry dark malty yet lasting vanilla.

22 Bottle shared by YGTBSM. Highly pronounced smoky burnt bacon chocolate aroma. Intensely flavored, but not so sticky or resinous. Mellowed CO2. Makes the Schlenkerla beers seem tame and mild. Quite intense, the aroma is potent. Intense flavor as well, but quite drinkable. Maple syrup, burnt bacon tones dominate. Completely unique, World Class beer.

Bottle thanks to hopscotch. Last beer before my 32nd birthday. Wow, this one really lives up to the hype. Perfect nose of freshly brewed coffee, maple, roast chocolate malt, vanilla and a light smokiness. Taste is the same. Well balanced. I wish the bacon was more prominent, but I can’t really complain as this is an exceptional beer.
