Has a roasted malty flavor with hints of caramel and licourice. Also some spicy and hoppy hints. Dry spicy finish with some bitterness. Emil (6075), Copenhagen, Denmark Jun 22, 2006 Bottle. Thanx to Jørgen. Dark red brown colour with a big beige head. Light roasted malty, nutty, dark fruits aroma and a light sweet, dry, light roasted malty, brown sugar, nutty taste. Medium body with a light dry finish. Ingevara (517), Hindås, Sweden Jun 22, 2006 Coffee colored with a much tinted, long lasting head. Smoaky, coffee flavor with a short lived aroma. A winter warmer rather than a spring celebration. Interesting. gferd (99), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Jun 21, 2006 Courtesy of Pailhead. Aroma has lots of roasted grain and some coffee. Flavor is all coffee. Would say this more like a porter than bock. Decent but once again, I am not a coffee fan. rlgk (3377), Vårgårda, Sweden Jun 20, 2006 Dark amber color, brownish head. Chocolate aroma, some vanilla and hops. Malty flavor with sourish notes. Fruity but a bit thin and watery. SpringsLicker (2041), Tennessee, USA Jun 20, 2006 Deep dark light absorbing brown that can be coaxed into some garnet highlights with intense backlight. Thick creamy tan head.
Malt and brown sugar aroma.
The flavor is full of sweet malt with little to no hop bitterness or flavor.
Could perhaps use a bit more body, but this is not really thin in any way. A bit of tang in the finish, perhaps from the wheat malt. cbkschubert (1945), Cochise Co., Arizona, USA Jun 18, 2006 Pours a dark brown color with a nice initial off white head that faded to nothing quickly. Has a nice roasted malt aroma. Has a light dry roasted flavor with a nice little hop zing. Aftertaste is a little malty. Fairly smooth, medium body beer. Decent beer. larsniclas (3383), Gothenburg, Sweden Jun 18, 2006 [Bottled]
Dark brown with a thick, beige head.
Fresh hoppiness in the aroma.
Flavour from dried fruits, prunes and chocolate. Pretty sourish.
