Feb 13, 2009 Purchased at Wine and Wares in
Jacksonville, NC. Poured a dark amber-brown, thin tan head that lingers. Spices, banana, bready malt, alcohol in the nose. Smooth and creamy mouth feel with moderate carbonation. Taste is spicy, slightly over ripe banana, raisins, rum like, with the sweet toffee-like malt very strong. Alcohol shows up as warming, but doesn’t overwhelm the flavors. Warm, very sweet finish that hangs around awhile. Fairly complex in its flavors. Not outstanding, but very good.

Feb 10, 2009 Bottle. Powerful aroma of ripe plums, banana, a bit of soy sauce, and alcohol. Deep reddish brown body, small light tan head. Flavor has wheat, fruits, sweetness, alcohol burn. Extremely high quality beer, but for my tastes the alcohol is a bit too much.

Feb 8, 2009 Bottle@Home, thanks Savad. Banana, toffee and malty aroma. Brown color, beige/greyish head, good lace. Sweet, light bitter, banana, vanilla, toffee, some herbs. Soft and smooth. Straightforward German beer but very flavourful.
BrotherGrendel (545), San Diego (La Jolla), California, USA
Feb 8, 2009 Aroma- Rich sweet malts with significant fruity esters of plums, grapes, and dark fruits, no hop aromas, no diacetyl, moderate alcohol aromas mix the sweetness
Appearance- Dark brown hue with amber highlights, slight haze and particulates in the glass, off-white head mostly dissipates
Flavors- Rich sweet malts balanced by a significant alcohol presence, light melanoidins and toasty flavors, no hop bitterness, no diacetyl, moderate fruity esters of dark fruits significant midway, smooth alcohol warming, clean lager, finish is sweet malts and alcohol
Mouthfeel- Full-bodied, low carbonation, smooth and thick texture
Overall- A malty lager with a surprising amount of alcohol presence due to the freezing process & concentrating process, flavorful fruity esters and rich sweet malts balance out the alcohol, drinkability suffers from the abv but not the taste
