The bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass quite dark, nice head. Starts strong, a bit alcoholic, not too much. Quite roasty-malty with a smokey touch, also some coffee notes. Finish well balanced, less malty. All in all a bit too roasty for my taste, but still a good doppelbock!

3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 neur0 (165) - GERMANY - SEP 25, 2011
(Flasche in 1/2l Helles Glas geschenkt) Es hat ein warmes, dunkles Braun und keine Trübung, dafür eine feine, fast weiße Schaumkrone. Das stark röstige Aroma ist mit einer malzigen Note hinterlegt. Im Kopf ist eine kleine alkoholische Spur. Es hat einen schönen vollmundigen, röstigen Geschmack und einen röstigen Nachgeschmack. Der Abgang ist ebenfalls röstig. Zusammenfassend ist das Bier sehr lecker aber leicht alkoholisch.

500 mL bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville, VA, opened 7/9/11. Pours a clear reddish brown color with a medium sized frothy tan head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of banana, nutty notes, toffeeish malts. The taste is toffee, nutty notes, caramel, banana and faint hops in the finish. Comes across a bit like banana nut bread. Medium bodied. Decent.

Pours a brown color with an off white head. Smells like wheat and caramel. Brown sugar is also in the aroma. Creamy mouth feel. Has a little burnt taste to it. Oodles of caramel in the taste!
