Mar 25, 2007 On tap at the BBW Brew Pub. Poured a dark and deep red with a brownish tint and no head at all. Almost reminded me of a glass of red wine. Aromas of dark fruits, chocolate, smoke, light alcohol and some roast. Tastes of dark fruits (cherries and plums), brown sugar, all around malty and some sherry qualities. On the sweet side. Light alcohol in the finish but no where near the 12.8%.

Mar 28, 2007 Reddish-amber color with an aroma of cherry, fig, and chocolate. Taste was a syrupy-sweet mix of fruit and sugar flavors. Not bad, but you have to start with a good Doppel/Weizen-bock to yeild a really good eisbock.

Mar 27, 2007 This is a tough brew. Sweet darker fruit aroma with a hint of alcohol. Thick syrupy body. Flavor is sugary, with blends of fruity tastes, maybe a bit of dark grapes. Alcohol is noticable in the flavor as well. Overall a very nice beverage.
