Great smokey meat aromas and charred flavors combine to make a tasty brew and gave me what my ladyfriend described as: "absolutely terrible breath". Still worth it. TET (232), Finland
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 10, 2007 Updated: Feb 8, 2008Very dark beer with thin but thick white head. Aroma is very smoky but still pleasant: tar and liquirice. Flavour is not so complicated. There is bitter liquirice, a little sweetness and of course lot of tar. Palate is full bodied and oily. If you like "tarliquirice-caramell" (sell in Finland) you will love also this beer. dmac (1442), Toms River, New Jersey, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 4, 2007 5 liter mini keg thanks to Dickinsonbeer, well he didn’t give me the whole mini keg just as much as I could drink before I passed out on his couch. Poured a deep brown with a very small of white foamy head that floated around the edges of this quaffable brew. Aroma of tons of smoke and slight wood. Medium to light bodied with a slight lingering aftertaste. This was a really drinkable beer that could easily be an all night drinker. shadey (1496), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 3, 2007 Bottle at Brickskeller. The character is standard Schlenkerla. The heavy peat smoke aroma is awesome; bbq smoke and malty bock flavor. Awesome stuff. performula (147), Triangle Area, North Carolina, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Nov 3, 2007 And I thought Fuller’s Porter was an ashtray taste. This one is over the top compared to the Weizen and Marzen. Smooth smoked taste until the swallow. Bittered smoke finish. Long ashy aftertaste that is unpleasant - to me.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 1, 2007 16.9 oz bottle. Pours a dark ruby brown with a creamy light tan head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is liquid smoke and BBQ pork with some metallic and DMS notes.
The flavor is vegetal malts and some sugary sweetness with a lot of burnt smokiness. It has a crisp bitter smoky finish that lingers. The mouthfeel is medium with velvety carbonation.
Overall, I love the smokiness that comes through. I don’t like the off notes in the nose and taste. I’ll have to try this one again sometime. Bullit (1334), Glasgow, Scotland

Flavour is smoked wood, salami, pepper and paprika. Lots of smells and flavours going on in this beer, but still subtle. Excellent. goozen (1061), Leiden, Netherlands
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Oct 31, 2007 Tap Bokbierfestival, Amsterdam: I gonna like the style when i visited Bamberg, and now the bock in Amsterdam. Start with the well know smoked smell that this dark brown beer has and than hits you with waves of coffee, chocolate taste.
