Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours dark amber with an average sized off-white to beige head. Aroma initially somewhat skunky but after a few moments much improved developing rich malt, caramel, dark fruits and yeast. Medium to heavy sweetness, very light bitterness. Medium body, oily texture, average to soft carbonation. Pretty good effort at a Vienna.

Bottle from Lupe Pintos. Appearance - golden amber with a nice lacy head. Nose - malt bag and something lightly beef stock. Taste - fudge and biscuit. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture. The finish is fairly balanced. Overall - nothing wrong with that.

Bottle from Lupe Pinto. Appearance - deep amber brown with a nice lacy head. Nose - sweaty fudge. Malt bag and light rye spice. Taste - rye spice and general cake notes. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish. Overall - on a day like today this was a bit of an oasis.

Bottle from Lupe Pinto. Appearance - golden with a thin but attractive head. Nose - green beans. Dank. Then fudge. Taste - loads of fudge on the taste. Palate - light bodied with a creamy texture. A bit sweeter than preferred on the finish. Overall - a bit sweet.

Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours clear pale golden with a thick white head. Aromas are strangely toffee-ish for this style, fudge. Taste is sweet, more fudge. Weird. Tastes like a darker beer.
