pintsize (1042), Austin, Texas, USA Jun 1, 2008 5-4-08 bottle shared at tasting
Clear brown in color with no head. Alcohol nail polish smell. Caramel toffee taste with a nice palate. deathevocation (6), Australia does not count Jun 1, 2008 I’ve been eyeing this off at the local store for a while. I’d never tried an eisbock and was perhaps put off by the alcohol content thinking it’ll be too overpowering. I shouldn’t have never doubted this as just like every other beer Schneider brews, this was great. I think the other reviews nail the description spot on so I want add anything other than to say grab a bottle. jason (1620), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA May 31, 2008 Bottle. Poured a brown purple body with a nice head. Aroma is brown sugar, sweet malt and dried fruit. Flavor is brown sugar, dried fruit malty and some grape flavor noted. For it’s high abv, it sure went down quickly. drfabulous (1204), Columbia, Missouri, USA May 27, 2008 I don’t know who ordered this, but it wasn’t me. My notes only reveal someone excited about the high ABV. Very intense alcohol taste. Nice. Sweet. Very sweet. dalepryor (172), Paducah, Kentucky, USA May 26, 2008 pours muddy brown, with lots of chunks and sediment floating around with a thin beige head. Smells heavily malty and kind of bread like, with fruits and brown sugar. Flavor is extremely smooth, nice chocolate bread like taste with a warming alcohol finish. The flavor is great, nice and mellow for a pretty strong beer. Eleventh11Man (7), Minnesota, USA does not count May 21, 2008 a very dark chunky brown color with strong alcohol aroma. has great taste of clove and carmel. very strong but extremly drinkable. blipp (1612), Newark, New Jersey, USA May 20, 2008 Bottle, about a year old. Pours deep brown with chunky sediment that sinks right to the bottom of my glass and a thin, fizzy off white head. Rich aroma with a lot a fruit, including plum, raisin and banana. I also catch a bit of chocolate and spice. Medium full body, with alcohol that tingles and cools. Flavor is again sweet fruit, mostly banana and raisin, as well as clove, bread and caramel. Extreme, very nice and quite drinkable. BeerGestapo (721), Windsor, Pennsylvania, USA May 18, 2008 (GERMANY) Courtesy of AFI96, Thx Waylo !!! Color is a med brown with a sm-white head. This one has a delightful dark fruit / cookie aroma that is very pleasant to the nose. The taste is of vanilla, caramel , robust malts. the 12% is well hidden in the brew, very nice...... If you see this one buy it !!!!!
