estoppel (1023), Buffalo, New York, USA Mar 23, 2002 Updated: Jul 16, 2004 RERATE 7/16/04: 1999 vintage. Brown body, hazy, small off-white head, vinous nose with spices. Rather mellow body, but complex with doughy malt, dark fruits, clove, bubblegum and some vinous notes. Five years aging seems to have taken care of any banana esters and most of the original sweetness.
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!
