ewestern (198), Ohio, USA Sep 29, 2008 Dark orange color with a thin white head. Sweet malty aroma with notes of honey. Malty flavor with an almost syrupy taste and feel to it. Crisp citrus finish with a slight bitterness and alcohol flavor. There is either more to this beer than I can pick out, or it teases me into thinking so. fata2683 (837), Panama City, Florida, USA Sep 28, 2008 On tap in our hotel in Garmisch. Pours amber with a small head. Smell is light with a little sweet and spicey aromas. Taste is wonderfull, starts sweet then turns dry and bitter and ends with a slight alcohol flavor. SoberCajun (49), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Sep 26, 2008 Pours a nice amber with frothy tan head. Mildly sweet aroma, some nice fruit notes in there. Lots of caramel in the flavor above the expected maltiness. Balance is wonderful, extremely pleasant to drink. emacgee (1859), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Sep 26, 2008 Pours a copper amber with a thin off white head.

Sweet mouthfeel with a little alcohol showing through. hoplover (166), Corpus Christi, Texas, USA Sep 26, 2008 Updated: Oct 8, 2008The first thing that hits in the aroma is spicy and flowery hops and some sweet maltiness and warm alcohol. As it warms, it wofts dark fruits like prunes, raisens even maybe strawberries! Has a thick but fleetung creamy tan head. This great beer pours a clear darker amber. Tastes much like the aroma. A great beer indeed. Ninjadave (3), , USA does not count Sep 24, 2008 Nice deep rich color and has a sweet dark amber-brown. sweet buttery syrupy taste yet has kind of a thick full flavor. this is a good beer and I give it two thumbs up. hombrepalo (748), Chicago, Illinois, USA Sep 22, 2008 12 oz bottle. Nice brew, smooth and tasty! Light copper hue and small head and some lacing. Aroma hints of molasses, herbs, honey, ripe pears, and vanilla. Starts sweet but a swipe of alcohol cleans the palate. Fruity taste and aromatic german hops are detected as well. Full-bodied with a oily and soft mouthfeel. Moderate alcoholic feel is present. Overall a solid beer. RigorMortis (24), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 18, 2008 Deep, rich color, pours nicely. Sweet yet complex. Strong but smooth. Incredibly good, one of my favorites.
