Oct 16, 2005 Bottled at Kulminator, vintage 1983?. Man this beer survived so good. Heavily roasted mocca aroma. Black color, brown small head, no lace. Sweet, roasted, coffee, heavenly flavors. Thick as soy. Maybe this is what Triple Bock should taste like?

Oct 9, 2005 Thanks hopdog!: 1975 bottle. The brew showed it’s age but I found it very drinkable. Soy was present in the beer but not so much that it detracted from it. Smooth and oliy.

Sep 19, 2005 VINTAGE 1983. Couleur noire et opaque. Une excellente formation de mousse brune se créer lors du service. Oxydation évidente en arôme; tuyau de métal, champignons, sauce soya et carton sous une faible part de malt foncé ayant jadis senti le chocolat. En bouche, oxydation est davantage évidente, cennes noires, carton mouillé…sous des notes en bémol de chocolat et de sauce soya. Corps d’épaisseur semi mince, impression presque vineuse. Ne tient pas bien la route, mais n’a probablement jamais été conçue pour le faire non plus. Bouteille, Kulminator,Voyage Europe 2005.
