Mar 11, 2009 I am a huge fan of the original Aventinus. The eisbock version is amazing as well. The concentration of flavor is outstanding, and even though its 12% you cant really taste or feel the alcohol on the palate.

Mar 9, 2009 An amazing amount of sediment and gunk at the bottom of this three-month-cellared bottle which retains most of the great spice and stewed fruit flavors of the regular Aventinus, presenting them anew in greater concentration and depth. Outstanding.

Mar 8, 2009 Pours a dark caramel color with a small fizzy head that disappears immediately. It has a tart nose of yeast and dark fruits cherries and prunes. Dark fruity flavor as well with yeast and dried fruits. The sweetness is tempered by a little hop bitterness (spicyness) in the end. I was expecting a richer flavor for some reason, but its still a very lively, meduim bodied , tasty brew

Feb 25, 2009 Murky brown with a prominent head. Tastes medicinal, more like a wine than an ale. Too strong for quaffing. Maybe suitable for a winter’s sipping, but wouldn’t want to do more than one bottle in an evening!

Feb 24, 2009 Bottle. My first Eisbock. Pours a murky brown with floaters and a one finger beige head. The nose is brown sugar , yeast and dark fruits. The taste is raisins, dates, caramel and yeast with some spice in the finish. Medium bodied. Very good – I don’t usually enjoy overly sweet beers but this is put together well.

Feb 20, 2009 Looking for something special and this did not disappoint. Tastes a lot like the regular Aventinus doppelbock, only more intense. Warm and spicy mouthfeel with slight alcohol tingle. Strong caramel tones, sweet, delicious.
