| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 11, 2008 Mahogany with a large medium tan head that slowly diminishes and leaves a trail of lace on the glass as it goes. Aroma of brown sugar, nuts, toffee, bread alcohol and mild fruit. Strong taste of sweet malts, alcohol, fruit, light nuts and caramel. Finishes with an alcohol burn so it obviously doesn’t hide the alcohol too well. My first eisbock – while it won’t be my last I’m not real anxious to try the next one. doubleo (1104), San Diego, California, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jun 8, 2008 Get this... Bottle marked July 11, 1996, Bottle #20937. Kulmbacher Reichelbrau Eisbock. Awesome! Many thanks to brewandbbq for this ancient treat! Pours dark brown with a very little, fizzy head. Smells sweet and malty, only a very tiny hint of oxidation. Tastes awesome. Dark and malty and caramelly sweet, somewhat roasty. Thick body, even with the lack of a significant head the carbonation is surprisingly good. trevor211 (504), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 8, 2008 Pours a dark ruby amber with a thick, though quickly dissipating head. Rich malts and molasses, as well as dark fruits. Thick - this is a big brew. Flavor isn’t far from a good barley wine - it has the strength, for sure. The dark malts (with a little smoke) are perfectly offset by a great bitterness, and while it’s sticky, it does have a wonderful flavor. Far better than you’d guess from the label.
