Jan 2, 2007 Its a red mahogany color and the head is huge, golden and creamy. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and a little fruit. The flavour is sweet, for a moment I find it very sweet, fruity, spicy and it has notes of roasted malt, licorice and the finish is long and lightly bitter. I kind of like this one, but then again it is a bit dominating in the overall impression and it should be more wheaty. 1722

Dec 31, 2006 Burnet caramel, alcohol, marzipan, some floral notes and vinous fruits in the salty aroma. Clear, dark, mahogany brown body is topped by a low tan head that recedes to cover. Sweet flavour has plenty of nutty marzipan, dark pit fruits, molasses, caramel and alcohol. Some dark malt bitterness in the finish. Medium body with low carbonation and strong alcohol warming. Bottle sampled with BeerPrince, CapFlu, frink and Oakes.

Dec 30, 2006 Aroma of burned sugar, raisins, portwine, hints of Worcestershire sauce. Very dark brown with shades of chestnut. Small big bubbled head which fades away quickly. Flavor is dominated by dark caramel, prunes, sugar and alcohol. Long warming finish with some bitterness leading to a slightly watery finish. Pleasant texture and low carbonation. Overall a very nice beer with a pleasant alcohol burn in the finish.

Dec 23, 2006 Near opaque black with a white head. Very smooth and tasteful, a fine bitterness and clear German style with some German yeast. Lots of caramel and some chocolate malt but not sweet and gladly not hopped up. Refreshing. A fine piece of craftmanship from Avery.

Dec 21, 2006 Updated: Dec 22, 2006A little caramel head covered the darker caramel Weizen Doppelbock. The aroma was smooth caramel, coffee, and bananas. The aroma was rather mellow. Similar was the flavor; smooth mild chocolate and mild fruits. Almost no alcohol taste. Like other reviewers, I found the finish to be somewhat vinegar-like. The finish actually finished rapidly, leaving me wondering if I had even taken a sip.
