| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 10, 2008 Updated: Jun 12, 2008Speis Und Trank, Munich. Clear ruby with a beige collar. Woody, almondy nut aroma with a hint of beefiness. A faint dusting of coffee and chocolate. Woodsy and thinnish with a very milky, mild-like coffeeish note, and some watery hazelnut/almond in the background. If this was a mild I’d mark it down for being too bland. Tasty, but vague. michael-pollack (2749), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 16, 2003 This beer was really just absolutely amazing. I liked it alot. A very smooth and soothing flavor that is rich and malty, yet mildly compex and has a great full mouthfeel. A very dark auburn pour, with a huge frothy head. The aroma is lightly smoky and peppery, but it does not really shine through in the flavor. Other than that the commerical description really rounds out what I have to say about it. Indeed, it is beautifully balanced. IrishBoy (2726), Bakersfield, California, USA

The appearance is dark amber with an average head. The flavor is like the aroma with a touch of cardboard. The palate is typical for the style. Overall a good but not great beer.
