Aug 26, 2007 500ml bottle. Pours a translucent dark brown, with a fading off-white head.Aroma is light with caramel, anise, malts and coffee. Flavor mirrors the aroma with a bit of a sweet syrup thrown in. The mouthfeel was a bit thin and watery, and the carbonation was very light. Finish was dry, astringent and saccharine sweet. I would have rated this beer significantly higher had the palate not been so weak, and the finish so sweet.

Mar 18, 2008 Toasty and malty and delicious. Really has a hardy, manly flavor to it. It doesn’t just look dark, it tastes dark.

May 24, 2007 Red brown pour with an off white creamy head. Nose of toffee, vanilla, plum, oak...very nice. Flavor is bready, fairly smooth on the palate, slight smokiness and dark roast as well. Easy to taste. The finish is a little thin, otherwise this is a pretty darn good brew here.

May 29, 2003 Nice copper color with a medium white head. The aroma and flavor had some nice malty, caramel, lightly hoppy tones. Bubbly feel. Decent.

Aug 15, 2003 Clear red/brown with a tannish head. Cleen hoppy, grassy, Saaz-y nose with a nice touch of caramel. Lightly sweet, bready malt flavors with hints of chocolate. Decent hop kick at the end. Those boys in Aying seem to know their lager from a hole in the ground...
