3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Amber color with no head. Aroma is sticky sweet and sugary, with some alcohol. Flavor is well blended. Sweet almost cloying (despite the description) and smooth. Palate is really nice. Clean finish with just a hint of the alcohol presence.

330ml bottle, deep copper colour with no head. Very sweet aroma. Some nutty aromas. Just too madly sweet for me and I like mead!!! Had to pour this away

UPDATED: FEB 24, 2007 This is a pleasant beer. Light red color with a head that only lasts for seconds. Light aroma with carmel and some malt. Flavor has a little alcohol, more carmel, and the standard bock flavor of malt. Very smooth and easy to drink. The alcohol is hidden well. A low key beer that doesn’t hit hard in any way but is great for slow sipping.

Quite good. Malty with nice complexity, medium body. Alcohol was present, but definitely not forward. Would like to have this again.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Strong alcohol, cherries, marzipan and berries in the aroma. Clear, burnished copper coloured body with a low, off white head that recedes to ring. Alcohol and vinous dark fruits in the flavour. Very hot. Medium body with prickly, intense carbonation. Bottle sampled at D.B.A. in NYC with Olivier_MTL and Rastacouere.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: FEB 25, 2010 Bottled at Fynske Øldage, Odense, Denmark. Quite flat, dark golden, with an off-white head. Aroma is mostly malty sweetness and alcohol. Warming, sweet malty flavor. Full bodied. Rating: 6-3-7-4-14-3.4. 051029
Bottle, at Esbjerg Beerfestival. A clear, amber beer with a minimal off-white head. Vinous nose with alcohol, lots of caramel and sweetness. Sweet, warm flavor with caramel. Throat-warming, full-bodied and slightly sticky from the sweetness. A sipper, but too warm for my preference, more muscles than elegance. 091023
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
From a snifter. Pours a lovely clear red color with a small head and absolutely no lacing. Aroma is of cherry, plum, apple, copper, and lots of alcohol. Extremely sweet and fruity flavor carries on with the aforementioned fruits. Alcohol presence is ridiculously high and the sweet syrupyness is a little over the top for me. This is only the third Eisbock I’ve tried and it is easily my least favorite.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
UPDATED: DEC 14, 2005 An intense malt taste that is exceptionally sweet, the color is an orange influenced amber with a medium dirty white head. The alcohol level is insanely high, this percentage of alcohol is well apparent. I am not used to this type of beer, too sweet for my preference. I just drank 1 and feels like I had at least 2, thanks to the alcohol content.
