| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 13, 2005 33 cL bottle, snifter. Rudy maroon hue with medium sized particles. Tall, frothy light-tan head is quickly diminishing. Huge aroma of chocolate chip cookies and raisin oatmeal cookies. Notes of plums, currants, almonds, vanilla and brown sugar. Trace of vinous qualities. Very fruity and malt-sugar sweet up front. Finishes much the same with a bit more acidity and a cardboard like oxidation. (bbe 08/2007) The finish is also rather weak and watery with a distinct alcohol note. Medium-full bodied, watery texture, lively carbonation. shrubber85 (2953), Wallhalben, Germany

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 9, 2005 Not bad, but not exciting. It pours a hazy, date brown color with a fizzy tan head. The aroma is sweet malt, molasses, brown sugar, and alcohol. It’s quite lively in the mouth. The taste echoes the aroma, adding a bit of dried fruits and somewhat of a mineral flavor. it finishes on that mineral water note along with some malty sweetness and alcohol warmth.
