Oct 26, 2008 Updated: Oct 27, 2008Bottle. Ruby brown, low golden brown layer.
Toffee nose with a light herbal and wooden edge. Wooden start, caramel, chocolate, light nuts, tobacco, oranges, a hint berries. Fullbodied, slick mouthfeel.
I tried a older bottle before and was surprised how badly it had aged.

Oct 25, 2008 Black with smaller head. Ginger coffee chocolate, vanilla malt caramel tangy sweetness. Decent amount of balance and character, a good tasty brew, a little quenching too. Nice, a good brew to try.

Oct 23, 2008 33cl bottle. Cool label design: poured dark brown with a medium sized light brown head. Very rich aroma of caramel, figs, raisins, prunes, etc. Taste is very malty with all the dark fruits above. Starts off sweet and finishes nicely bitter albeit mild. Undoubtedly Kulmbacher’s best beer.

Oct 22, 2008 Smells like prunes and caramel. Looks roasty brown with upper 2/3’s of glass too dark to see through. A well disguised wallop. A deep but roasty and dry flavor. Almost taste like a fuller bodied nut-brown. Not a favorite but decent. Just recently had something similar I liked better.

Oct 21, 2008 Bottle shared by footbalm, thanks man. Pours a cloudy toffee color with a medium tan head. The aroma is very sweet; almost like a Barley Wine; sweet candies and tons of rich malts. The flavor was quite interesting; loads of rich and intense malt, a ton of dusty dryness leaving your palate really quickly. Not too hot, just a bit of alcohol warmth. A bit of yeast and caramel also. Pretty damn good and interesting.

Oct 21, 2008 Dark brown pour with a brown hued frothy big head. Aroma of malt with a hint of yeast. Really big malt flavor with some alcohol evident. Reminds me of rum cake with raisons and plums. Nice balance while (almost) keeping the alcohol in the background. I like it.
