Aroma feels old and has some cellar and raisin. Rather light flavour has alcohol and raisins and feels old. Not bad, but definitely out of date.

4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 Koelschtrinker (7060) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 16, 2011
Sehr cremig-malziger Geruch, leicht süß, das Bier macht schon im Geruch Lust auf mehr. Cremiger Antrunk, stark malzig-süß geprägt. Dabei erscheint das Bier in keiner Lage auch nur annähernd alkoholisch. Besonders im Mitelteil ist die Würzigkeit und die Vollmundigkeit erwähnenswert. Im Nachgeschmack ist eine süße Note vorherrschend, unter der auch ab und an ein schokoladiger Ton erkennbar ist. Dies steigert sich erst und klingt dann nach und nach langsam ab. Überaus gelungen!
Vielen Dank an den Doppelbock für das Teilen des Bieres!

4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20 BeerCast_Rich (1202) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - MAY 9, 2011
[550ml bottle courtesy of cgarvieuk] [bottle number 02626] Opaque reddish-brown pour, some lacing but pretty flat as one would expect. Wonderful nose – sherry, dark vine fruit. Mild, mellow flavours of sweet fruit cake, marzipan, toffee. Fantastic how the rich flavours have relaxed over the years, but the whole is just as complex as presumably it once was. Outstanding, just a fabulous beer [08052011]
