Kuhnhenn Raspberry Eisbock

Brewed by Kuhnhenn Brewing
Style: Fruit Beer
Warren, Michigan USA

2007 bottle thanks to my Secret Santa. Pours brown with just a ring of white head. Aroma is like a raspberry filled brownie with some boozy notes too. Flavor of medicinal raspberry with a chocolatey finish. Also some prunes and raisins. Top fruit beer? Not for me. 8/4/7/3/14 (3.6/5)

On tap at Kuhnhenn. This beer is amazing! It is a brownish red color with a slight head. Taste is malty with hints of raspberries and sweet/tart fruits, the beer itself isn’t incredibly tart however. . The aftertaste was warm with hints of alcohol coming through. The only problem with this beer is that it cost $13 a 6.3oz bottle.

Hazy brown with a small beige ring of foam on top. Fat malty aroma with well integrated raspberries, tobacco and leather. Flavour is just as fat, malty with notes of leather, caramell, wet tobacco complemented by a nice acidic toutch from the rasberries. This unique beer finishes with a really warming aftertaste that grips ahold of your mouth and never really let go, lovely warmth alongside slight acidic lingering raspberry.

6.3oz 2007 bottle served in a small snifter. A - Pours a rich caramel with reddish hue. I think I see a few small bubbles of carbonation, but didn’t expect any given the abv. S - Fresh tart raspberries dipped in caramel chocolate. I could smell this all night long. T - Big malty raspberries, chocolate, caramel, and cherries. I thought it would be sweeter in the sugar sense, but it’s just massively malty sweet. M/D - The amount of carbonation is perfect for this beer. It just slightly bubbles over your tongue, but leaves your mouth lingering with the malty syrup. Drinkablity is great, and the bottle size is absolutely perfect. I need to find at least one more bottle of this to see what its like at 3+ years...

2007 187 ml bottle. Rich chocolate and raspberry on the nose, alcohol notes as well. Pours a muddy brown with no carbonation. Rich decadent caramel with hints of chocolate and raspberries with some cherry notes as well. Very nice!

Long overdue rating here. Can’t tell you how many times I have had this without rating it. 2oz sample at brewery. Pours a deep brown with reddish hue to it, thin tan head, no lacing. Aroma very pleasant of roasted malt, tart raspberries, chocolate, dried fruits, and a bit of wine. Flavor matches well and all of it comes together so nicely. This is a sipper to be enjoyed slowly, just all around wonderful brew.

Bottle. Pours a deep red. I was probably a little too in the bag to enjoy this when i opened it, but awesome none the less. Nose is loads of alcohol, chocolate, ripe fruit, sweet raspberry and malt. Flavor is AMAZING! Tons of cocoa, ripe and sour fruit, fig, plum, booze, and sherry notes. Absolutely amazing! I need more.

2007 edition shared with LJ for rating #250!. pours a very pretty reddish gold with a thin, off white head. aroma was oustanding with huge tart raspberries, caramel, cinnamon, and hints of tart cherry and dark chocolate. flavor was wonderfully rich with a perfect balance of tart raspberry, sweet toffee, and slightly bitter chocolate with a hint of red wine and warming alcohol. palate was slightly sticky yet elegant with mild carbonation and a lingering, tart berry finish. overall, a great brew.
