| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 15, 2006 Dark but somewhat clear amber color, you can smell the sweet fruitiness in the aroma,taste is all malt fruit,carmel raisin, very sweet in fact almost too much so,even for the dopplebock style. Texture smooth I’d prefer that sweetness to be tweaked down a tad

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 13, 2006 Pours a dark brown with a dark amber on the bottom of the glass. 12 oz bottle thanks alot cperry8483. Aroma seems of dark fruit, raisin, plum, slightly sweet with some vanilla. Taste is of slightly sweet malt, dark fruit, detect some buttery yeast flavor also. Not much hop flavor, aroma, or bitterness detected. really enjoy this beer, a great sipper that would probably age extremely well. RooftopRogue (423), Champaign, Illinois, USA
| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 5/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 6/20 | Mar 4, 2006 The aroma only offers a mild hint of roasted barley. Dark brown liquid with a thick light brown head. The taste can only offer a mild similarity to burnt popcorn. igneous1 (1374), Davenport, Iowa, USA

Aroma is malty and bready. Bannana nut bread is no exaggeration. It really does smell that way. Body is a lusterous garnet color and holds a thumb thick, lasting, tan head. Fore is dark fruits, malt, alcohol and brown sugar notes. Very rich with lots of flavor depth yet still retains that lager base which makes it lighter bodied (for something with that much flavor) and oddly refreshing for something of 8% alcohol strength. zug4abby (287), San Diego, California, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 1, 2006 Thanks The_Enemy! Pours a clear, dark brown color with a big bubbly head that disappears from the middle of the glass quickly but lingers on the outside. Aroma is like banana nut bread with warm sugar and nut hints to it. Flavor is very rich with hints of syrup and fruits. Warming and thick on the palate. I really enjoyed the combination of palate and flavor and found this beer to be delicious!!
