| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 17, 2007 Tastes and smells like Viennese wholemeal pastry made with raspberry and chocolate. Pure raspberry icing. Dessert like without being sweet. Not as fruit-forward as I expected, nicely balanced and finely textured. microakes (94), Canada

Pours a deep brownish red color with no head.The nose was heavenly.Lots of chocolate enveloping the glass with lots of raspberries, fresh not artificial.The flavor is ridiculous.Chocolate and rasberries almost like fondue.A little thickness in the mouthfeel with some alcohol prickness on my tounge.Now to let it sit for a bit to warm up a bit.Sweetness is now mellowing out with some sourness coming through more.Raspberries becoming more dominant.The finish was raspberries and alcohol warming.Thanx to JJPM for sending this to me.This was great.

Pour is a nice ruby red with almost no head...just a little white rim. Aroma is great! Tart rasberry, chocolate and thick molasses. Flavor is awesome too...overripe rasberry, chocolate and toffee. Full mouthfeel and very creamy. Exceeded my expectations...which were pretty high already. alamar (1), USA does not count | 4.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Nov 8, 2007 It’s back!!!! The members of the Kuhnhenn Guild of Brewers Homebrew Club were bestowed with an advanced taste of this years Raspberry Eisbock. Rich, fruity and delicious are the first terms that come to mind when tasting this favorite. Scheduled for limited release on December 21st at the Winter Solstice Party with bottling afterward. presario (2956), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Oct 30, 2007 A generous gift from tiggmtl. Still muddy reddish brown. No head. Aroma of chocolate, raspberry and alcohol. Alcohol is muted but still noticeable in the flavour. Chocolate with a molasses hint and faint trace of advertised caramel. Raspberry in the finish. Begs the question of what it tasted like fresh. Smooth but seems a bit tired. 19641948 (492), Greensboro, North Carolina, USA
| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Oct 5, 2007 Limited release hand-signed bottle by the Kuhnhenn’s. Thanks for the treat, Tim. Originally received a 4.85 from me on 8/14/05. Raspberries, chocolate, moist dessert bread. Luxurious mouthfeel. A dandy. LearninBeer (201), Sterling Heights, Michigan, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Sep 29, 2007 2004 bottle. The aroma was raspberry, chocolate and a hint of bread. Opened the bottle and it fizzed up and over. The head was fizzy, fully diminishing. The body was dark red. The initial flavor was sweet with chocolate, raspberry and a flavor that hit the back of the throat and stayed for a nice long finish. The body was light to medium, the texture full (watery/creamy) and the carbonation fizzy. Glad I have another on hand for next year or later.
