Capital Eisphyre

12oz bottle via trade with Duane! - Thanks! - Pours nice copper color with a short tan creamy head that fades quickly to a ring and laces a little from there. Aromas of caramel, raisin, lots of brown sugar, and some vinous notes. Flavor is quite simlar. Caramel, Raisins, Dates, Brown Sugar, and some red wine. Slight spiciness on the finish but mostly sweet with a syrupy palate and well covered alchol. Not bad..

Sweet, syrupy caramel flavors dominate, with a good dose of alcohol in the nose and finish. Think of their Autumnal Fire, but a bit smoother and sweeter.

Beautiful dark tan color with nice head. Nice malty aroma, though would like more due to the style. Nice bread flavor with alcohol waiting in the wings, but not over powering. Another good one from Capital. It will be nice to see what else comes from this Four Corners series.

The dominant flavors of malt, brown sugar, sweet fruits, carmel are not my thing at all and they are drowned and lost in intense sweetness that even hides the 10% alcohol if it really is there. I like sweets but not in this larger type beer. I want to give this hometown brew a decent rating but just can’t. Their dopplebock is the same thing-- sweetness causes blandness.

Picked this up for Duane while I was in Milwaukee a few weeks ago and he let me have one. Pours a great copper color with a fading tannish head. This one is all about the malts. Great sweet, dried fruit taste, as well as some warmth from the booze. My first of the style, and a very good one.

Thanks to JPDIPSO for this one. The pour is deep ruby with 2-finger khaki head. Aroma of big roasty malt, brown sugar, almonds, caramel, cabernet. The taste is caramel malty, with a lot of cabernet notes, plus brown sugar, berries, plums, and slight spicy notes. Wonderfully rich and complex palate, with well hideen alcohol. Finishes rich, chewy, fruity, malty, and complex. John, thanks for this gem.

Bottle poured a dark copper with nice creamy head. Sweet malty fruity aroma. Flavor is Sweet malt, caramel and lightly metalic. Smooth sweet finish.

12 oz. bottle. another great Wisconsin lager. tarnished copper in color with a nice looking tan head. wonderful malty aroma with a flavor of toasty malt and some spice. just a bit of an alcohol noticed and this is slightly warming as well. really enjoyed this one and wish I had more.
