muddy brown with a nice tan head, slightly fruity rich sweet malt aroma, lots of rich carmel malt flavor, like a cross between a bock and a barleywine, almost cloying but balanced without being hoppy

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 5, 2006 Murky brown with a very fleeting head and no lacing. Strong and very sweet aroma of malts and honey. Malty taste with rather prominent alcohol and honey and a mild coffee finish. An odd beverage but not at all unpleasant -- a nice curiosity if nothing else. tronraner (1934), Seymour, Tennessee, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 31, 2006 Bottle. Pours a brown copper with off-white head. There is a strong aroma of burnt sugar, along with some raisins and a ton of malt. The palate is a bit thin, but conveys flavors of burnt sugar, some leaves, malt, banana-tasting yeast. Not much in the way of hops. Ok. veringer (5), USA does not count | 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 25, 2006 a little yeasty. Slightly thick. But it’s smooth going down and has an inoffensive aftertaste. oldrtybastrd (1823), Morlautern, Germany/Great Falls, Montana, USA

Smells like it has more than 5% alcohol. Flavor has a nice sweet, caramel malt flavor and finishes with an almost peanut brittle like taste. bu11zeye (5621), Frisco, Texas, USA

Smelled like molasses and hops to me. The odd shaped bottle and size (11.2 oz) with a thermal decal letting you know it was the right temp to drink were neat. I had a similar Russian beer in Kyrgyzstan and was looking to duplicate that. I was not dissappointed
