Oct 6, 2007 Bottle 0.33 l BB 250907. Dark and deep red, clear. Malty like mämmi, sweet, sugar, syrup, ryeish, spicy (anise?) and a bit fruity. Not very roasted nor bitter. Alcoholic. Very dense and sticky overall, makes your tongue go a bit numb. Moderate carb.

Oct 5, 2007 Updated: May 16, 2008Amazing. The sweetest, succulentest beer man has produced. I would drink this beer before I went on a date with Carmen Electra. Unless she had a bottle of this. The nose is beautiful like a cherry pie covered in caramel, the mouthfeel is medium bodied with perfect carbonation and presence. Alcohol never presents itself even in warming times, and the finish leaves still images of dried overripe dark fruits all over the tongue. Amazing.

Sep 21, 2007 La seconda - per fama - eisbock di Kulmbacher (la prima è ovviamente la bistrattata EKU 28), ha carattere meno aggressivo e meno "estremo" anche per l’inferiore gradazione alcolica e per un bilanciamento un poco più sensato nei sapori. Perde magari un poco di fascino, ma è decisamente più bevibile; forse andrebbe letta come una doppelbock semplicemente un po’ nutrita. Godibilissima.

Sep 14, 2007 What seems to be a 12 oz. bottle. Aroma of very dark caramel malt. No dark fruit. Color is a clear, very dark brown; the beige head is very respectable. Medium to full bodied with creamy carbonation. The flavor is caramel, toffee, roasted malt. There is a component that reminds of the old Grapette soft drink - arguably Concord grape (presumably available at Walmart!). Fruity and malty. The finish is not excessively sweet, and the gritty roast malt aspect tends to balance the sweetness. Malt balancing malt? Anyway, the flavor is excellent, and the palate is pleasing.

Sep 8, 2007 I grabbed this one just by visually shopping at my new favorite store here in Albuquerque (I have since moved). When the "beer guy" at the shop told me it was a lot like Celebrator and that I could even do a side by side tasting, my immediate thought was something along the lines of: "Brother. You are really putting your reputation on the line here." It was my first suggestion from him and anyone in the store for that matter. I took his advice though and took a bottle of Celebrrator to do a side by side tasting. The two are virtually twins I feel, with minimal characteristic differences. The Celebrator has a more roasted quality and the Kulmbacher has a sweeter edge...and also 2.5% more on the ABV. Overall I appreciated this one quite a bit and was surprised how similar it was to Celebrator.

Sep 6, 2007 Bottle from Hi-Time Wine. Very deep amber color upon pouring. Sweet malty aromas. Notes of dark fruits and even a little grape. Roasted malty flavors dominate. Dark fruits as well. Finish is a little bitter with roasted qualities.

Sep 5, 2007 Bottle, Beers of Europe Poured dark brown pretty good clarity, white head. Toffee like aroma, along with some molasses. Tastes quite rich as one would expect but sweetness a little overwhelming at times a bit barley wineish in that sense, still very nice beer that has dark fruits and is quite sticky on occasion.
