Commercial Description:
Dark ruby, glistening mysteriously, streaked with fine, top-fermented yeast, this beer has a compact, stable and long-lasting head. It has an intensive, typically top-fermented clove-like aroma. The palate experiences a gentle touch, on the tongue it is very full-bodied, compact and yet fresh with a hint of caramel. It finishes with a light and delicate taste of bitters leaving behind a strong, smoothly rounded, sour impression.

16.9 oz bottle. Spicy, wheaty aroma. Dark amber with a good bubbly head. Tastes of wheat, caramel, spices, and a light sour yeast. Great mouth feel with a slight creaminess and full bodied. A superb brew from a master brewery.

Deep brown pour with a big creamy tan head that lasted a while. Sweet fruit and caramel malt in the aroma, along with yeast, grain and spice. Very enjoyable flavor starting with the fruit and caramel and becoming richer throughout. Creamy on the palate with a good spicy finish. Seriously good!

Bottle. Hazy red brown with no head. Aroma of fruits and spice with a slightly sour (yeasty?) note. Medium body with plenty of carbonation, but fine effervescent carbonation. Complex flavour that evolves from a fruity start with banana and maybe a hint of citrus and apple with spices. It develops through a sweet toffee phase into a rich finish with chocolate, burnt toffee and cloves. A superb beer.

Pours a cola brown with a thick, rich foamy head. Great aroma of cloves, spices, and a slight hint of bananas. Nice clove taste and bubblegum..Someone was dead-on when they said they tasted Marmite in it. Spicey finish.

Unimpressed, fail to find the fascination (nifty alliteration or what?). Smells like sweet cigar butts steeped in root beer. Mouthfeel alot of effervescence but not the substance i like to see.... likely just the style and my own preference being mismatched here. Only drinking the rest of the case as it bought and paid for. Shall not be revisited.

Poured a dark brown with a white head from the bottle at NYC’s Loreley. Great wheat aroma with cloves, pepper, and bananas, not to mention plenty of malty sweet goodness from a bock. Raisins, fruit, and dark bread. What a wonderfully balanced beer. Excellent on its own. A new favorite.

Now this is what makes me understand why there is a different rating part for appereance of the beers. Looks absolutely great. Big wheaty aroma, full body, sweetish taste with a lot of things going on, banana and marmite and all kinds of things pop into my head when I taste this great beer.
