Dacrza (178), Great Meadows, New Jersey, USA Sep 23, 2007 Capping my personal "trilogy" of Schneiders available at Bottle King, I saved the richest for last...deep purple mahogany body with a tremendous, lasting head--the doppel effect is clearly noticed...notes of perfume, flowers, grapes and cassis--complex...medium to full body with a soft finish...alcohol is only hinted at ( a slight wine burn?)...bubbles form gently around tongue...moderate to heavy acidic pressure...strong winish presence...overall, a confounding creation--a dark wheat abbey that really comes on like a merlot...the head adds flavor throughout the evening, and suddenly, like a wine, you realize how sneaky quick the good feeling of this brew is upon you...nicely done
CaryTheDude (489), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Nov 28, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Smells like a cross between a quad and an imperial weizen. Complex as shit. Oh and tastes awesome. About as wheaty as a beer can get, but a nice complement of dark fruits makes this one excellent brew. Homer321 (120), Rockledge, Florida, USA Nov 20, 2008 Smells slightly metallic and slightly sweet smell as it warms. smooth, sweet, slightly milky taste that is very rich. A nice balance of wheat and fruitiness with darker ans sweeter flavors as it warms. A very nice beer. I only wish it were lower in alcohol so I could drink more! ericandersnavy (199), denton, Texas, USA Nov 20, 2008 bottle picked up at metzlers in denton, tx. poured a cloudy brown with an off white head. aroma of caramel, floral notes, spices, and fruits. flavor had some caramel, dry spice, and alcohol. overall i was not real impressed, maybe it was past its prime. will have to try again. moseslikesbeer (176), conestoga, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. aroma of spice, yeast and fruit. Flavor was sweet and mild and malty and just damn good! lol A nice smooth drinker this one is and will be having this again. oldrtybastrd (1793), Morlautern, Germany/Great Falls, Montana, USA Oct 30, 2008 Shared this one w/ SkyCop32. Picked up at Maruhn Getränke in Darmstadt, also picked up the authentic glassware pictured to the left. Pours a crisp cola brown color. Aromas of clove, banana, fruit, and alcohol. Flavor is alcoholic clove and spice with a bittersweet finish. Good beer!
