| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 23, 2008 bottle. Very little faint odor of molasses but a great dark amber color. Little head but too noticeable carbonation when drinking. Some licorice and port wine flavor. Very dry and a lingering sweetness. Possibly nice for the style but a little dry for my taste.

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 6/20 | Mar 22, 2008 This is HORRIBLE!!! Impressive visually but you can’t drink a picture. 1/2 inch beige head sits above a rich reddish-brown brew. The lacing is perfect; dense splashes of suds cling to the glass every 1/4 inch. The aroma is an indistinguishable sweet...and the flavor is raw nuts and grain. Not good...did everyone else try a different beer than me??? badgerben (3610), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 21, 2008 Dark brown color with a medium head. Dry grainy aroma. Strong rye, malt, grain and chocolate taste. Oddly dry finish for a bock, but it’s pulled off well. jetzler (622), oklahoma city, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Mar 21, 2008 Bottle, nice sweet aromas plenty of raisin and currant, a touch of roast. Nice taste a bit of metallic hops, slight cloying sweetness. Quite nice, drinkable but still satisfying as a darker brew. Sweet cream and coffee make this a pleasure to drink. hophead75 (1964), Boonton, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 20, 2008 12 oz bottle from Crown Liquors. Dark brown with a light tan head. Aroma is alot of caramel and some dark fruit, plums and figs. Taste is dark fruit, caramel and some metallic hops in the finish. not too bad. JonR888710 (999), Cochabamba, Bolivia
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 20, 2008 Pours a dark brown. Very dark brown in fact, when held to the light none passes through. If the light or glass are tilted some hues of ruby show through. The head is toasted white and large, thick and rich. Aroma is strong malt and west coast hops. Taste is also very malty, milk chocolate, drying anise, sweet and tart grapes, and dark roasted coffee in the finish. The mouth feel is pleasantly accurate, frothy and delicious. I believe the alcohol level is just right. Well done! biggmike (480), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 19, 2008 Poured a deep dark brown color with decent head that dissipated rapidly. Aroma is sweet maltiness with notes of chocolate and dark fruits. Taste has notes of dark fruit, chocolate, and roasted nuttiness. Fairly complex. Mouthfeel is pleasant and drinkability is fairly high.
