Jun 8, 2008 Get this... Bottle marked July 11, 1996, Bottle #20937. Kulmbacher Reichelbrau Eisbock. Awesome! Many thanks to brewandbbq for this ancient treat! Pours dark brown with a very little, fizzy head. Smells sweet and malty, only a very tiny hint of oxidation. Tastes awesome. Dark and malty and caramelly sweet, somewhat roasty. Thick body, even with the lack of a significant head the carbonation is surprisingly good.

Jun 8, 2008 Pours a dark ruby amber with a thick, though quickly dissipating head. Rich malts and molasses, as well as dark fruits. Thick - this is a big brew. Flavor isn’t far from a good barley wine - it has the strength, for sure. The dark malts (with a little smoke) are perfectly offset by a great bitterness, and while it’s sticky, it does have a wonderful flavor. Far better than you’d guess from the label.

Jun 4, 2008 Poured a dark brown. big dark fruits overall, quite sweet. Really smooth and rich. Couldn’t quite get into this one. Just didn’t do it for me. Sometimes you can judge a book by its cover.

May 31, 2008 Updated: Jun 7, 2008(GERMAN) The color is a dark brown almost black with a fizzy sm-white head. The aroma is a combo of molasses, caramel and prunes. The taste is of dark fruits, alcohol, and licorice. And the mouthfeel is extremely smooth and creamy !!! This was a pleasant suprise and i would drink it again.

May 28, 2008 This stuff is tasty. Pours a dark brown color with reddish highlights. Head is small to medium sized and is an off white color. Nose is booze, chocolate, caramel, yeast, and bread. Taste is very sweet with some caramel and sugar. The alcohol content is somewhat present but it makes the beer what it is. I enjoyed this one and the holographic label is pretty different as well.

May 28, 2008 nice malted/sweet aroma noted with very dry hint of alcohol, poured a very very dark brown with contrasting light head, wonderful fully carbonated taste with deep flavors of molasses with nice balance of sweetness and alcohol close to a barley wine flavor but very mild, palate with lasting sweetness with a little roasted nut lingering, wonderful drink.

May 26, 2008 Dark brown and clear with a nice head. Sweet smell of brown sugar, malts, and some molasses. Taste is pretty much the same as the smell. Thicker sort of body.
