| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 3, 2007 Pours an amber golden and a modest white head with some coating. Earthy aroma of malted grain. Taste is semi-sweet malt, burnt caramel, some hop bitterness, and a characteristic "malt likka" alcohol taste and burn. Actually, not bad at all when compared with others (most) in this category. There’s even a fair amount of balance to it! sneezey (110), Hackettstown, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 2, 2007 Darkish color with a heavier malt and a touch of sweetness. Reminded me of a Bavarian doppel even thous this is lagered. A bit drier than expected, alcohol shows through, but reasonably pleasant taste. Bit of unfortunately metallic aftertaste. Otherwise not bad. Not an award winner, but not bad. Drew (2409), Kent, Ohio, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 5, 2007 This bottled brew from a bottle shop marked Best Before 040107E poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent typically carbonated light orange brown colored body and a poor lacing. The aroma was caramel malt and mild vinous. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start with a mellow finish with a lingering caramel aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of malt hops caramel and mildly vinous. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again. Quack-Duck (3260), Bodensee/Schwarzwald, Germany
