Skeegle (293), USA Dec 3, 2007 Loved this beer. Wonderfully complex with figs and dried cherries, finishing with a cranberry bite. Full bodied like a doppelbock. Fantastic. nimbleprop (551), Washington, Washington DC, USA Jun 8, 2007 The bartender told me this was their "sweet lager" and it was exactly that. Brown head, brown translucent color with red hues. WAY too sugary and lightly malty. Might be alright for a pint, but too much for a session. treadyroc (94), St. Leonard, Maryland, USA May 23, 2007 From a growler from the Bowie location.
At first taste, I drew back with an "ew" look on my face. My wife says, "keep drinking it, it gets better." lol.
Red’ish brown in color (but not amber). Not much in the way of an aroma. Kind of smells a bit sweet. Tastes like a bock at first, but doesn’t really follow through. Kind of a copper-y aftertaste. edden (882), cow- lumbus, Ohio, USA May 14, 2007 5/10/07: On Tap, Bowie. Mahogany – raisin colored body. No head – no lace. Light plum nose. Raisin flavor with molasses, caramel malt and a touch of hops. Slight sour finish. After taste is also a bit tin like. ryan (1673), Beltsville, Maryland, USA May 7, 2007 From a growler thanks to LordMaynard. Clear amber body with small, fading, off-white head. The aroma is caramel, lots of dark fruits and banana. The flavor is raisins, plums, light cherry and caramel. Medium body with soft carbonation.
