Jul 22, 2008 Dark mahogany pour with dissipating head. Heavy malty flavor with alcohol presence. non too complex. A mouthful of yummy malt with a finish of alcohol and tad bit of date.

Jul 22, 2008 thank you belgianbeergal! This is delicious. My first eisbock!!! Pours a black color with a fluffy mostly white head that disappeared pretty quickly. forget the hops here, this is all syrup, malt, dried fruit, raisins, molasses. And that goes for the aroma and flavor. Sweet and smooth. What a sipper. Better as is warmed...man oh man I want more...more I say!!

Jul 22, 2008 Taste 7/8 bottle( Date?) Looks: Dark black cherry. Nice full bodied foam that clings. Aroma: Roast, dried fruit, caramel. Taste: Nice fruit and roast with a chocolate tinge. Medium bodied and a little sticky. Alcohol comes more warming than in the aroma. I imagine the cold process achieves this.

Jul 22, 2008 Bottle - Dark reddish brown pour with small simmering head. Liquor like malt quality with dark fruits and slight sweetness that slithers into the pallet. Has a fine aged quality that creeps in when it warms up. Smooth with some tasty roasted bitterness towards the end. Another one that I will have again soon.

Jul 18, 2008 Deep, dark mahogany. Sweet brown sugar and boozy sherry aroma. As this warmed up, a definite pruney aroma became apparent as well. Sweet and generously malty, molasses and bread crusts and stewed fruits, with a boozy warming finish. Better at higher temperatures-- much more restrained when chilled.

Jul 16, 2008 Bottle: A slightly sweet malty aroma not over powering. It poured a clean, clear medium brown wth a minimal head. The taste was superior, good malt character, but not overpowering not too sweet with a smooth finish. It’s a good thing I didn’t buy more or they may have all been gone in one sitting. "I’’ll be bock..."

Jul 16, 2008 Updated: Sep 13, 2008Bottle. Best before 1/27/09. Very dark brown color with a big beige head. Aroma has lots of malt, some caramel, light roastiness, some subdued chocolate notes, hints of fruits and alcohol. The sweet flavor is bursting with malt and has caramel, some bread and light roasted notes. A good thick body. Really good, I wish I’d tried this one on some cold January night and not on a sweaty middle-eastern July night.
