Pours almost like the color of ice tea. Head quickly dissipates. Very watery mouthfeel. I mean like water . I reckoned this beer would be more velvety. Obvious taste of alcohol. Lingers after you swallow and warms your mouth. NICE!! Sweet, but dominated by alcohol.

Pour is a dark orange with a white head Aroma is lots of caramel and brown sugar. Lots of brown sugar in the flavor so much so it takes over the flavor. overall its ok. try an drink it on an empty belly.,as it is very heavy.

Bottle, pre-Rita festivities. Pours a beautiful golden brown, with glorious lacing. Aroma is alcohol, molasses, raisin, and toffee. Flavor is a sweet ass-kicking of alcohol, sugar, toffee, and cotton candy. Wonderfully coating palate soothes the tongue. Great beer.

Bottle. Sweet plum, brown sugar aroma initially that changes to a sour peach as it warms. Brown-orange-red color with small disappearing head. Sweet plum flavor initially again in the flavor that turn sour for a moment before fading into an astringent alcohol flavor in the finish. The astringency is more typical of the bock style - probably one of the most representative of this style.

proclaims this is : one of the strongest beers in the world. well it doesnt try to hide that fact. bitter alcohol taste, somewhat sweet. sort of a bad beer. im glad i only bought a couple of these.

nice fruity-sweet aroma, beautiful deep copper colour, and a thick but shortlasting head. creamy, medium heavy body, a bit hot but not too hot tasting, considering the 11% alcohol level, spicy, and sweet with a slight spiced bitterness to the finish. a pretty good, but not great brew, perhaps something to help warm you up sitting by a fire in the winter.

Copper colored beer pours thick with a cream colored head that quickly recedes due to the high alcohol content. Aroma is sweet malt and a whiff of alcohol. Flavor is sweet, thick malt, and a big alcohol hit. The flavor is pretty good, but it does not even try to hide the booze, and that is not entirely a bad thing. Big bold malt and caramel flavor; sweet, thick, and chewy. Interesting, enjoyable, and good, but not something I could drink more than one or two of.

Very tough to finish this one...sickly sweet and sticky in a bock kind of way, but without the fruity/malty/hoppy balance of a good bock. Alcohol just makes it harder to finish. Did not enjoy this at all.
