Grzesiek79 (2364) - Radom, POLAND - MAY 11, 2013
Bardzo dobre i aromatyczne piwo. Podstawowy samichlaus ktory i tak juz jest dobry poddany maturacji w debowych beczkach. Wnosi to troche aromatow drzewno-cynamonowych. W smaku biszkoptowo-piernikowe. Slodkie ale z rozsadkiem. Przy takim samym stezeniu jest tu jednak alkohol bardziej wyczuwalny, zwlaszcza finisz jest wlasnie alkholowy. Tylko przez ten alkohol piwo zebralo maly minus. Na uwage zasluguje ciekawa stylistyka butelki z wyraznym rocznikiem. Ale sadze ze nie musiala byc az takich rozmiarow. Piwo idealne na zimowe wieczory.

jcos (1176) - Maryland, USA - FEB 1, 2013
Location/Date:Bottle split with J Pinsky on 1/31/2013.

Appearance: Pours a maroon opaque.
Aroma: Aroma is boozy and of caramel.
Taste: Caramel, faint oak, faint chocolate.
Palate:Medium light body, relatively hides alcohol well.

Summary: I should have typed this in last night! Oh well. Interesting beer, and at 14% packs one hell of a punch especially since it was a 1L bottle. Interesting stuff, definitely sipper material, gets you a bit buzzed. Not everyday beer.

Birra molto particolare fatta sempre nel periodo di natale, ottima da abbinare con dolci o in un dopocena anche per il suo grado alcolico ben 14^ ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On tap at the farm house taproom in Burlington. Pretty lucky. Very mild palate, almost flat, but really interesting taste ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

MichaelBruch (1493) - Wanne-Eickel, GERMANY - NOV 23, 2012
Bottle shared with McTapps. A tough one with alcohol dominating. Still not that bad as the Aventinus from Schneider but still one of the more disgusting beers in the world.

Holmen1 (1077) - NORWAY - NOV 15, 2012
Fra flaske på Cardinals juleøltreff nov-12: en meget kraftig dobbelbokk med stor maltsødme og innslag av karamell som balanseres av noe bitterhet. en verdig avslutning på en fantastisk hyggelig kveld!

McTapps (1496) - Ruhrgebiet, GERMANY - NOV 15, 2012
Bottle bought online and shared with MichaelBruch. Dark brown in colour with low but steady head. Taste of pure alcohol, strong caramell and rich malt. Very special kind of beer, but not my best all-time favourite Doppelbock. Awful palate of plaster and burning malt.

Nightsky (172) - Lutz, Florida, USA - SEP 29, 2012
Full aroma, sweet brown sugar and raisin. Clear, dark brown color. Oily and rich in flavor. Strong raisin and brown sugar. Little bit of a bitter finish. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
