COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Something has gone terribly wrong (or terribly right depending on your view) in the Brewhouse. One of the brewers must have added too much malt to the mash and made a very strong beer. Stronger than your used to from the brewery that makes authentic German styles. This super strong beer has put the whole place in a state of pandemonium.

- The beer is golden colored but very heavy with alcohol of about 8% by volume. It’s dangerously easy to drink, so as the bottle label states: “You’ve been warned.”

22 oz. bottle. Pours a clear dark golden in color with a medium sized off white head. The aroma is medium sweet with a little honey and caramel, bread, very light hops. The flavor has light citrus, caramel, alcohol, medium sweet malts, with a slight touch of hops. Medium bodied with a slight stickiness.

Pours a clear golden amber. Nose is like dried wheat. If not wheat, then just dried straw. I just think "dried" when I take a whiff. Flavor is smooth with a sweet touch to it. The sweet might be overstated for some. Feel has a good carbonation to it and the liquid is good as well. Seems a bit too sticky though. Overall this is good, but a bit too lop-sided with the sweet edge to it.

22 oz bottle. Pours a golden color with a medium-small white head. Aroma is sweet. Flavor is standard lager-like, with notes of citrus and spice. It’s carbonated, but not in the bad way. Good with a meal but that’s about it.

Pours a translucent golden amber with a medium creamy/bubbly white head that left some lacing. Aroma of dough, honey, cereal grains, touch of orange...mostly sweet and malty with some lingering alcohol. Flavor was pretty much the more of the same sweet malty character with more honey notes, some light citrus, for 8% ABV rather well hidden.

22. Thanks, Kim! Very lightly hazy medium caramel amber under a thin light gray film. Sweet orange, honey, and spice on the nose. Very light thin body with aggressive fizz. No booze on the nose or on the mid-palate (kind of amazing, that!). Fades into butterscotch. Lovely, interesting, and very well under control, which says something about their skills at Penn. Nicely done.

Draft at Which Brew. Poured a clear golden body with thin head. aroma is wheat, light hops. Flavor is bready, wheat and a somewhat warming feel to it. Intresting beer but not intresting enough to try it again.

I was not too thrilled with this very malty bock. The beer offered plenty of malted milk-ball flavor that to me seemed both cereal-y and slightly sour. The culmination of these two flavors was not something I tremendously enjoyed. This beer poured a tannish color, and was cloudy and a bit hazy. There was not very much head. Aroma was distinctly malty. Flavor was very much like a malted milk ball, but with some sourness I didn’t particularly enjoy. Mouthfeel was unremarkable. While I wouldn’t recommend this beer, it wasn’t bad. I bought this bottle out of curiosity from Minotti’s Liquor in North Olmsted, OH.

Nice gold pour and white head. clean favor but nothing overly exciting. Not a great fan of lighter beers so i would not recommend for fans of stouts but fans of lighter beers i think this would work fine
