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.

Oct 9, 2006 Nice dark amber color,small tan head that had a good hang time then faded to leave a little behind.The aroma was malty with a nice roasty side some dried fruit maybe and a bit of chocolate possibly.The flavor was very nice with a nice roasty malty taste mildly sweet in the beginning with a good mild fruit and caramel taste coming on as well as a nice roasty side in the middle.The alcohol manages to stay pretty well hidden with just a hint in the tail end.Very nicely done brew and well worth having a few more which i’m glad i do.

Jun 2, 2006 Picked this 22 ounce bomber up at Hi Time. The bar code didn’t scan, so they only charged me $1.67 for it. What a steal!
This pours very dark brown with red highlights. The head is tan, and very meringue/creamy textured. The aroma is malty with some overripened fruit.
The 9.5% ABV is beautifully hidden. The flavor starts out slightly sweet & tasty and finishes smoothly. All in all a very enjoyable beer.

Nov 5, 2006 Pours a dark mahogany with ruby hues and a large, frothy, nicely-lacing light tan head. Aroma has a good amount of sweet dark wheat and bready German yeasty notes with a touch of graininess and banana clove spice. Body starts sweet and viscous with nice authentic flavor and smooth malted wheatiness with a slightly drier, bready finish. Very true to style and enjoyable.

Mar 25, 2007 Ft. Myers, Fl. - Total Wines, 22 oz bomber. Dark amber pour, soft khaki head - leaves slight bubbly lacing. Exellent aroma of caramel, cotton candy, and some sweet smoked meat. Flavor is sweet, yet full-bodied. Caramel, toffee, milk chocolate - it’s all in there and blended together well. Some Christmas spices make their way into the back end. Very tasty. Mouthfeel is thick enough and the high abv is hidden well.

May 30, 2006 Deep rubyish brown, thin light tan creamy head. Nice nose of cocoa, bread, and banana, with softer tones of caramel, cherry, and toastiness. Flavor held more notes of cocoa, and banana, with a soft tangy underlying grapefruit hop bitterness to round it out. Medium bodied, zesty carbonation, soft, bittersweet finish. Happy 13th Avery! An interesting brew for you guys, but I like...

May 29, 2006 Pours out a dark brown almost black color with a nice tan head. Smells malty and fruity with some hints of coffee and chocolate. Taste is sweet, rich, filling, and it has a nice hoppy bitterness to it. At first I got a rather metallic taste from it that slowly faded away the warmer the beer got / the more I drank. It is very sweet, maybe too sweet, but it goes down in a hurry, and for 9.5% it certainly does not taste like it. This is not bad at all, certainly worth a shot, glad I have a few more bottles to drink over the coming summer months. Much better than Twelve was.

Oct 23, 2006 Mellow sweet aroma of a good bock,just a touch of maple and chocolate, ,definite hints of grain wheat, if you dig really deep you get subtle bubbegum and banana,indications that German weise yeast has been used, surprisingly little or no head, a somewhat light fruity slightly sweet malt and melanodin taste, some alcohol can be detected,fruitiness goes right into aftertaste,a touch to thin in mouthfeel. Very good
