| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jan 30, 2002 Amber-brown in colour. Salty, malty, sourish & smokey. Complex, but falls short of the on the malt if comparing to the Bamberg version. Oakes (8113), gone rambling, Cambodia
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 1, 2001 Robust bock, with great development of dark malt flavours, and then a smooth, mellowed-out smokiness overtop - lovely. CaptainCougar (5520), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 10, 2004 GABF 2004: Clear copper brown with a thin off-white head. Aroma is wonderfully malty sweet with bold caramel and smoked notes. Mildly sweet and smokey body has a nice balance and semi-dry, lingering smoke finish. This is a really good rauchbock. austinpowers (2828), New York, New York, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 7, 2003 IN-SANE! Massively smoky, like eating a side of bacon that sat in a smokehouse for a month. Outstanding, though the bockiness didn't shine through much. Moderately malty. This may be better than Schlenkerla Urbock! Volgon (2490), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

Dark orange in color, very smooth tasting. Heavy smoked malt finish. Nice without being overpowering. PhillyBeer2112 (2089), Orange Park, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Oct 7, 2002 GABF 2002: Subtle campfire aroma. Bright orange color. Nice malt upfront and a decent campfire flavor. Not overly smoky. Somewhat watery finish. scraff (1954), Baltimore, Maryland, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Mar 15, 2004 Great smoked beer. Somewhat orangeish with an off white head. A bit sweet and malty, hints of tobacco with obvious peat smoked malt. Flavors match the taste, but I would even throw in a bit of caramel and toffee as it warmed. Would be awesome on a summer day out on the deck grilling up all the favorites. A perfect example for this style. guzzler67 (1285), Hanover, Maryland, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Feb 1, 2004 This years (2004) offering is the best I have had so far. The aroma is a little more subtle, but still smoky. Smooth, leathery, smoky malt taste that is so true to the style. Unique without being offensive. If you like rauch beers, you will love this one. A must if you ever get the opportunity.
