Bottle. Pours a highly carbonated mahogany with a head of off-white. Aroma is malted molasses, with hints of nut and grain. Flavor is uber-sweet molasses malt with touches of Grape Nuts and barley. Nice mouthfeel. Pleasant, approachable beer.

Bottled (from Bierzwerg.de). Very deep ruby red colour, small off-white head. Aroma is bready malts, some sweetish malts, raisins, mild alcohol as well as some mild toffee. Flavour is caramel malts, mild mildly smoked wood as well as some dark dry fruits and some alcohol. Mild grassy notes grow in the finish. Yet quite sweetish and strongly malty. Pleasant.

Bottle. Clear medium to dark red brown color with a large, frothy, excellent lacing, fully lasting, beige head. Aroma is moderate to light heavy malty, roasted, brown sugar, notes of chocolate. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (160308)

dark copper colour, vanishing head. starts with roasted malts and caramel taste. mild. hops comes in the middle and stays until the end. here addited by the roasted malts. a normal drinkable dark bock without accents.

Wässriger Malzgeruch. Malziger Atrunk, dazu deutlich würzig. Die Malzigkeit setzt sich im Mittelteil fort und ist hier sehr leicht und cremig, was das Bier sehr süffig macht. Eine gewisse Hopfigkeit, die sich im nachgeschmack ebenso leicht fortsetzt, ist zu erkennen. Im Nachgeschmack flachen die Aromen schnell ab, die cremige Röstmalzigkeit bleibt noch ein wenig bestehen. Einen solch süffigen Bock findet man nicht oft - Fiedler hat es wieder geschafft, ein gutes Bier zu brauen! Test vom 17.3.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,11,12,11,11,11 - 10,85

Bottle, kindly provided by Kappldav. Chocolate, molassis, caramel aroma. Chestnut, low brown head. Sweet brown sugar entry, bisquit and a few herbal notes. Relatively light body - has a Schwarzbier vibe to it, molassis - not too sticky mouthfeel though, light plums retronasal.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin biege head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel, and so is the flavor, though added a note of alcohol. Thanks yespr for sharing.
