jbrus (4835), Delft, Netherlands Oct 31, 2007 Bottle@Home. Milky aroma with a hint of banana and lightly smoked, but also butterscotch and a hint of varnish. Dark brown color, beige head, fair lace. Light sweet, caramallized banana, licorice and chocolate. Soft and milky mouthfeel. Very nice, could use some complexity though. caesar (3020), Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands Oct 28, 2007 Bottled. I’m always quite hesitant with Avery brews. Some are absolutely fantastic, but others are quite disappointing (though not bad). So I did not expect a lot from this one, but it turns out to be very nice. Hazy redbrown color, medium off-white head. Aroma of chocolat, slight malty, slight yeasty. Strong malty taste, milk chocolat, caramel. Smooth and silky bod mouthfeel. Very nice. jerohen (1602), Bussum, Netherlands Oct 28, 2007 Dutch Ratebeer Meeting. Clear brown coloured, brown head. Lactic aroma, stout-like, some alcvohol, fruity notes. Sweet liquorice flavour. Lingering finish. Perhaps overly alcoholic in flavour. handsomejn (26), Arkansas, USA Oct 19, 2007 Pours deep red/brown, medium to thick on the texture, thin head (almost no carbonation), coffee candy flavor, sweet finish, sours on the long finish. The one I drank was very mature and aged quickly in the glass. Gusler (2655), Tucson, Arizona, USA Oct 19, 2007 The beer departs the 22 ounce brown bottle a deep brown with nice ruby highlight, the head is tan in color, the texture creamy and the size about two fingers, as it decomposes, the lace forms a tight skirt upon the glass. Nose has a nice fruity aroma, cotton candy like, hints of malt also present. Start is nicely malted, sweet with a moderate to full feel to the palate. Finish has a determined acidity, the hops pleasant, somewhat sweet and dry the aftertaste lingers long on the palate, quite good in my book. tarjei (1741), Bryne, Norway Oct 14, 2007 1 pint bottle. Dark brown color, lovely beige head. Sweet malt, hints of coffee, dark chocolate, liqorice and roasted malt. Sweet, with bitter finish. Vinous. Very good. tenghave (402), Taastrup, Denmark Sep 26, 2007 Tung kastaniefarvet øl.
Duften er Viniøs, røget og sød.
Smagen er meget meget tung og blød. Meget sød og krydret. Og Fyldig iunden.
Øllen er for stærk, og er slet ikke så frisk som en øl gerne må være.
Gæren kan kun let anes.
Alcohollem er tydelig, og øllen bliver vammel efterhånden som den bliver varmere.
Ikke megen kulsyre. Carl99Fan (186), Suwanee, Georgia, USA Sep 22, 2007 Dark brown color with expected wheat flavor. Another very good brew from Avery.
