Aroma was lightly toasted malt, molasses, alcohol, and spices. Flavor of molasses, roasted malt, spice and alcohol. Finishes with a nice dry warmth. Well blended, thoguh not overly complex. A solid beer, but not amazing. Would drink again, though. pinkzambia (989), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 17, 2007 22 oz. Bottle: Sweet, roasted caramel aroma as well as picking up on the alceeehol. The color is dark brown with a small off-white head. The feeling that I get upon taking my first sip is exactly what is found in the commercial description: "marrying the complexities of two great German traditions." I taste a lot of sweet flavors like hazelnut, alcohol, and a little furniture polish. I also sense some dry weeds and mild anise in the aftertaste. These flavors linger for quite a while. Complex and compelling. Thanks Indiana_Red for hooking me up! Arayaga2 (986), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 22, 2006 Almost black with minimal white head, this stuff has a malty bananna aroma. Taste is an odd bitter malt with a hint of raisin, and alcohol burn going down. Too thin and astringent. $7/22oz FoolishMortal (966), San Diego, California, USA

This one pours a dark brown with a tan head. Sugary flavor and sweet but not cloying. Different and interesting. Kind of like a banana split. I liked it. BeerBelcher (945), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 13, 2007 I had this at the July Comet Cafe "beer school" in Milwaukee. It was a red-brown color with an inconsistent head. The beer had a grape-y aroma like a merlot (not like a cabernet). Flavor was more sour grapiness with some smokiness wihich surprised me a great deal. Mouthfeel was pretty ordinary. topherh (940), Kearney, Missouri, USA

Smells of sweet malt dominate the aroma. Taste is of ripe fruits, toasty malt, and sme spicy notes. The alcohol seems to be fairly well hidden.
