3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Copper colour, hazy, minimal head. Slight musty aroma, strong hints of booze, a bit hoppy. Tasted charcol and roasted malts. All flavours were slightly drowned out by the booze, it was a bit too much. Not smooth but not fizzy. Ok to have tried but won’t seek out again.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20

Clear copper colour with small off-white head.
Heavy bready malty aroma with some mild medical notes.

Bottle. Clear, deep orange body with a medium, frothy white head. Light raisin and white grape aroma along with some cracker and light toast. Flavor highlights the raisin/grape character and a little caramel peeks through. Light, floral noble hop presence. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Fairly balanced malt/bitterness profile. Lingering malt flavors. Worth dragging back in my suitcase!

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Süßmalziger und rosiniger Geruch. Im Antrunk süße Malztöne. Mittig aromatische Züge, wobei im Hintergrund sich die Süße verringert. Abgangs schokoladig-malzige Aromen und deutlich alkoholisch. Eher schwerfälliges Bockbier, aber trinkbar.Test vom 24.2.2010, Gebinde: Glasflasche
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle from Markgrafen Bamberg
Light amber color, copper, with medium sized creamy head. The aroma seems to be anonymous, but at some point it develops some delicate hop notes, and malt. Medium body strength, but also a bit of an oily mouthfeel, which is not desired; light malt flavor, with very light cereals touch, although the real quality here is the strong bitterness supported by a hop with some qualities. It doesn’t have enough depth, complexity; what if they threw a handful of smoked malt in?
Decent.
