Bottle, 6.5% ABV. (RBNAG 07) The aroma, which isn’t bad at all, somehow reminds me of a meal of German sausages and sauerkraut. It’s quite sweetish, but there’s a little touch of cooked cabbage lasting all the way to the very end. There’s also a little roast and beef-stock maltyness in the flavor. Full body. Sure drinkable and sure unusual. (071103)

500ml bottle (6,5%ABV) @ RBNAG’07. Body is clear amber with a thin beige head. Aroma of sweet malt, brown sugar and some alcohol. Flavor is quite sweet, malty with some caramel and a decent bitterness. Medium body and a well balanced beer, not so unusually as indicated on the label.

Thanks to boboski for opening this brew. Pours a clear light brown with faint copper highlights. The head is white. It has a light aroma that hides its complexity. I get mild notes of spice, fruit and vague sweetness. The flavor attacks the palate with sweet dark fruit like plums, raisins, hints of grapes and also smooth blended spices. Then I get caramel hard candy sweetness cut by hints of alcohol, mild tartness mixed with cherries. It really dries out approaching the finish leaving a mild caramel and cherry dark fruit flavor behind.

Bottled. Deep ambery/copper colour with mediumsized brownish beige head. Aroma is caramel, some smoked wood, roasted malts and a bit saltwatery feeling to it. Kind of Schlenkerla meets a fullquality pils aroma. Flavour is smoked wood, some sweet caramel malts, a bit spices and also saltwater. A really, really, pleasant "smoked bock".

Bottle (from Cracked Kettle, Amsterdam). Deep coppery amber colour with small beige creamy head. Aroma is spicy, fruity, some alcohol and sweet malts. Flavour is leathery, alcoholic, spicy and quite fruity. The fruityness along with leatheryness stays for quite some while in the aftertaste and the alcohol gives a nice warming touch. After this wears out the spicyness gets really strong. A rather complex and nice brew.
