Bottle, 6.5%. Metallic aroma. Clear brown colour. Small light brown head. The flavour is quite sweet, creamy and slightly peppery. Quite roasted with good malt notes and brown sugar. Finishes with a little rough malt bitterness. Nothing spectacular, but it is a dark bock the way I like it.

Darker brown coloured with an average off-white head. Sweet roasted caramel, light yeasty aroma. Full creamy body. Finish is little roasted but ending more wattery. just a little bitter. Very short finish, little disappointing.

Bottle at home. I was really disappointed with this beer. There were huge commercial campaigns in Holland but the beer didn’t taste very good. The aftertaste was horrible. The body and appearance are good but the aftertaste did put me to the conclusion that I don’t like this beer.

Big coarse beige head; deep dark red body. Sugary sweet aroma with notes of licorice and hops. Sweet syrupy licorice taste with dry, smoky, hoppy background. Dry licorice and hop aftertaste. Not bad, but a bit sweet, and a bit lacking in complexity. (0.3l bottle.)
