2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
UPDATED: MAY 12, 2005 Re-rate May 2005 Dark brown body is ruby in the light. Big billowy beige head. Dry nutty aroma, Very mild roast malt, raisin. Dry alcoholic flavour with just a touch of malt, vague hint of raisin and dry cocoa. Alcohol is distractingly prominent. Average palate. 5/4/5/3/10 <P> Jan 2001 More of an alcohol bite than the Holsten had... less sweet and smooth as well. Not a bad beer but I would buy the Holsten before this. 4/3/5/3/10

Can. Dark brown body with a light brown medium head. Malty aroma with light tobacco notes. Soft palate. Sweet malty bit alcoholic taste but with some tobacco and smoke notes. I was surprised by this one.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Clear bronze brown color with a fluffy light tan head. Sweet caramel mixed with a american standard aroma. Somewhat thin and fizzy. Initial caramel and malt flavors are quite enjoyable, they unfortunately are replaced by a saccharine sweetness. Finish has a small alcohol bite and later a decent light toasted malt linger. This is one of those roller coaster beer. Good this, not so good that. Thanks slikwily.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Can (500ml). Poured deep brown with an average cratered light brown head. Roast malt, some raisin, touch of hops and moss - better than I expect from the "get me drunk fast" specialists. Taste is sweet mild roast malt and grape juice, not much hops but the linger is a bit bitter - the alcohol is very well behaved. Pretty light bodied and somewhat carbonated. Decent but not exciting - easy to drink, though.
3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
/,7 % alcohol, but the alcohol is not unpleasent present, only a bit warming. A nice clear tasting and strong beer.
