33 cl. Clear copper-orange with a lasting film of creamy foam. Nose of corn, grass and molasses. Flavor is caramel, grain, hay, peppery wood and cherry liqueur. Near-medium body is smooth, alcohol-dried and chest-warming. Give this one a chance; it gets better the further you delve.

Dec 27, 2009 330 ML bottle in Germany. Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t this used to be about 13%? Anyway, it is one of the better beers at being able to handle the high alcohol content. At one time this was the Strongest beer in the world. Times have changed. The original ice beer!

Dec 24, 2009 The aroma reminds of bourbon or whiskey or rum - liquor at any rate. The appearance is a rumlike hue. The palate is strangely reminiscent of a tawny port - sweet, slightly cloying, with a lingering sweet aftertaste. Nice, but probably too sweet and too strong to be a staple.

Dec 13, 2009 Sul bicchiere è di un rosso rubino, elegante, con fina schiuma densa e persistente. Al naso spicca il cacao del malto e odore di ciliegia e mirtillo.
Al palato la forte gradazione alcolica si bilancia male con il resto, e la birra appare secca ed è stata sofferta la sua consumazione.
