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.

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.

May 17, 2008 bottle. pours a deep brown with a small white head. wonderful aroma of banana, citrus, dough, and a bit of spice, mainly clove. taste mimics the smell though a bit subdued. medium bodied with pleasant carbonation. the 12% abv goes without notice. a wonderful drinker if only it wouldn’t put me on the floor after a few bottles.

May 16, 2008 Bottle. Interesting nose, lots of alcohol presence, light smoke and sweetness. Dark brown with a patchy head. Huge alcohol, but milky sweet character, caramel, and a smooth palate make it surprisingly drinkable.

May 12, 2008 2007 bottle. You can taste it’s more "alcoholy" than the regular Aventinus. Although I think a little of the full body flavor is lost in the process. I liked the aged (2002) Aventinus better than either the regular or the eisbock-- just really mellowed nicely over 5-6 years. But the eisbock is enjoyable, although I’m not sure I like it more than the Kulbacker Eisbock.

May 12, 2008 2006 bottle. Not really an improvement, but still a good drink. Pours like the standard Aventinus, with a small, off-white head covering a murky brown body. Aroma of alochol, spices and banana esters. Alcohol masks the great Aventinus tastes, but bananas, vanilla, clove and dark malts still shine through. Mouthfeel is somewhere between syrupy and creamy. Perfect carbonation.
