ajm (281), USA Aug 7, 2008 Fantastic beer. Another bottle from Uber Tavern taken to go this time. OPens with a light nose of brown sugar and alcohol. Color is cloudy, dusty brown - very interesting to watch. Plenty of sediment, too. Looks like it was oak-aged. Flavor for me was very clear: caramel, butter, salt, and violets up front into green raisins, red wine, hints of oak and figs to finish. Really quite something; due to its consistency, probably easier drinking than its darker cousin. msante79 (198), Illinois, USA Aug 6, 2008 Picked this up at WLV Liquors. Pours dark reddish brown with thin light tan head. Nice aroma of spices, caramel, toffee, candied suger and dark fruits. Flavor is wunderful with caramel, sweet malt, suger, dark fruit, spices, toffee and a touch of chocolate. With out a dought the best BSA that I have ever had. No yeast notes which makes this brew so good. Very complex and has some nice barley wine qualities with out hops. Hides alcohol very well. What a beautiful brew. Cant wait to try regular Pannepot. nbutler11 (77), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Aug 6, 2008 Thank you to ajm for splitting the bottle. Poured a murky brown/amber with a thick head of tan foam and noticable sediment at the bottom of the glass. Plenty of alcohol and brown sugar on the nose. Loaded with cinnamon, caramel, and butter. Quite a treat. michael-pollack (1335), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 4, 2008 330ml Bottle: Sweet aroma. Smells vinous, with notes of candi sugar, dark fruit, grapes, caramel, and malts. Poured medium brown/dark ruby in color with a small, dense, beige that diminished. Cloudy. No lacing. Flavor is medium sweet. Tastes of candi sugar, yeast, light spices, alcohol, dark fruits, raisins, and port wine. Medium body. Oily, then chalky texture. No carbonation. Sweet, fruity finish. Very drinkable. BeerBunker (20), Burbank, Illinois, USA Aug 4, 2008 Very murky brown color. Instant aroma of dark fruits. Excellent mouthfeel of mild chocolate and heavy spices. Small hints of alchohol linger. Deliciously balanced.
