Clear nutty in the glass with a fine tan head. Pleasant intensity in the aroma. Toffee, fruity and some spices coming up Balanced sweetness for a beer like this, and a fine carbonation level Toffee, fruity, some yeast and lots of spices in the flavor Maybe a bit to much after a while. Decent evening sipper [Bottle from a trade with herrklemann] Brewery #2193

0,33 bottle. Unfortunately, the beer has almost no head, which spoils the look. Copper red color. The aroma is restrained hop, fruity, a little sweet, delicious. I took a sip, thought, and then some little aftertaste might be a pungent aftertaste .. Well no! This beer stings hard, percussively !!!! It hardens the esophagus, I think it will hold the stomach as well. While I drink, it's good and interesting, but .. tough ... :)

Sajnos a sörnek szinte nincs habja, ami ront a megjelenésen. Rézvörös szín. Illata visszafogottan komlós, gyümölcsös, kicsit édeskés, finom. Belekortyoltam, gondoltam, majd valami kis mellékíz talán csípős utóíz lesz.. Hát nem! Ez a sör keményen, ütősen csíp!!!! Keményen marja a nyelőcsövet, gondolom a gyomrot is fogja. Miközben iszom, jó, és érdekes, de .. kemény... :)

0,33 bottle. Full-bodied, dark reddish-brown color with larger extract pieces. The head is unfortunately a bit weak with a large hole, but a minimal amount remains. The aroma is dried fruit, cognac and then warmer coffee. At half the glass, alcohol comes through under the foam. Unfortunately, it is too carbonated for a sip, much more carbonated than what fits the category. In addition, the cognac, full-bodied, fruity, sweet notes come in handy. Serious, strong - strongly alcoholic taste - not Belgian Belgian. Feel free to try. All the products of the factory so far have been unique.

Testes, sötét-vörösesbarna szín, nagyobb extrakt darabokkal. A hab sajnos kicsit gyenge, nagy lyukú, de egy minimális mennyiség megmarad. Illata aszalt gyümölcsös, konyakos, majd melegebben kávés. A pohár felénél már alkohol is átjön a hab alatt. Sajnos kortyra túl szénsavas, jóval szénsavasabb, mint ami a kategóriához illik. Emellett jól kijönnek a konyakos, testes, gyümölcsös, édes jegyek. Komoly, erős - erősen alkohol ízű - nem belga belga. Próbáljátok bátran. A gyár eddigi összes terméke egyedi volt.

0,33 bottle. Durable, very nice white head, wheat ears-lemon yellow slightly turbid color with visible extract. The aroma is hopy, fresh, fruity, very delicate, better than I expected. The foam remained pretty nicely. Delicately, round hops, very creamy, very round, very hit ale. Restrained, yet tasty. As much as you could drink from it :) A little dry, more restrained hops than IPAs, but a bitter finish. Good beer.

Tartós, nagyon szép fehér hab, búzakalász-citromsárga picit zavaros szín, látható extrakttal. Illata aroma komlós, friss, gyümölcsös, nagyon finom, jobb mint amit vártam. A hab elég szépen megmaradt. Finoman, kereken komlózott, nagyon krémes, nagyon kerek,nagyon eltalált ale. Visszafogott, mégis ízes. Bármennyit meg lehetne inni belőle :) Kicsit száraz, az IPA-knál visszafogottabb komlózás, de keserű lecsengés. Jó sör.

Fridge mishap Eisbock'ed this while I was on holiday. Yay… But of course I had to try it. Feels like a strong, bready Bock. Would actually prefer this to many Bock beers from Austria. ?

0,33 bottle. Extra long lasting, nice IPA-typical big head, the high extract is visible on the beer (and at the bottom). Nice deep brownish color. The aroma is citrusy, with some caramel in the background, and various fruits. A truly special beer. Full-bodied, later chocolate flavor and aroma emerge, like a hoppier buck beer, with Styrian hops emerging from the background. Very delicious, highly recommended!

Extra tartós, szép IPA-kra jellemző nagy hab, a magas extrakt látható a sörön (és az alján). Szép mély barnás szín. Illata citrusos, háttérben némi karamellel, többféle gyümölccsel. Igazán különleges sör. Testes, később csoki íz és illat is előjön, mint egy komlósabb bak sör, a háttérből a styrian komló előjön. Nagyon finom, extrán ajánlott!
