Dark orange. Small white head.
Warm, vinous, fruity aroma.
Thick and oily palate.
Very sweet, with notes of honey, and malty with a bit too much alcohol in the finish. bu11zeye (5442), Frisco, Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 6, 2009 (330ml bottle, 2007 vintage, courtesy of blutt59) Pours a clear golden body with a spare white head. Aroma of apple, alcohol burn, and mustiness. Flavor of yeast, fruitiness, almonds, and alcohol. A bit hot as expected for a young Schloss Eggenberg beer. I look forward to trying this vintage again in about five years to see how it matures. jrob21 (1258), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 5, 2009 Pours a pretty delicious looking dark orange amber clear color. At first out of the fridge it reminds me more of an orange liquor. As it warms you get a little more toasted grain and malt. Aroma is sugary and slightly alcoholic. Finish is a little hot after you get some grassy kind of hops snuck in there. FrankJohansen (3367), Århus-Randers Crew, Denmark

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 28, 2008 Bad ass brew. Got it on tap at the HopCat. Thick, amber pour. Sweet aroma of spice, yeast, caramel. Taste is sweet, christmasy, tasty. Lots of caramel, honey, brown sugar. Alcohol is apparent, and its a very slow sipper. Still, really cool. joeyplush (335), Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Dec 26, 2008 Updated: Dec 27, 2008Pours a medium to dark gold color with virtually no head and no visible lacing. Aroma of very light citrus hops, yeast, and a very faint hint of licorice. And when I swirled the beer, I swear I caught light aromas of tomato sauce. Flavor is slightly medicinal, with the flavor of hops lightly evident, sweetness, and a feeling of stickiness in the finish. tronraner (1913), Seymour, Tennessee, USA
