3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Brown amber with large foamy head. Caramel and cereal malt aroma. Lots of sweet caramel taste, a bit too much for me. Pretty decent all around though
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle - Malty nose with a hint of spice and a little citrus. Clear rich amber colour with a wonderful frothy head that lingers and expands. Thick malt flavour with vanilla and spice notes along with some bitterness that seems a bit out of place. A bit rich for a session beer, but makes a great winter ale.

Bottle [660ml] shared with garthicus & HogTownHarry -- c/o GregClow. March 21. Pours a deep orange-ruby with an average size lasting frothy off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt and toffee, slightly sweet as well. Flavour’s also sweet, with caramel malt, toffee, light hops, light spices and a boozy bitter finish. Average bodied. Not really an Eisbock to me, not great either, just O.K.

3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle from Darby’s, Vancouver
Bright amber color, with short lived head. Some malt caramel and cereals aroma. Good malt flavor, caramel, clean, with some cereals and strong bitterness; some alcohol warmth; also the body strength and mouthfeel are correct; there is some residual sweetness. It’s at least a good Doppelbock, although not eis-ed; I had this bottle warmer than the Russell Eisbock draught, and therefore it was better.
