May 19, 2008 Bottle thanks to HogTownHarry. Poured jet black. Aroma was very curious with dominance in soy sauce and licorice. The flavour profile was very imperssive. Blackberries, licorice, plums and a bit of alcohol that finished off very nicely. Medium-thick mouthfeel. Wonderful beer! I look forward to drinking this again.

May 16, 2008 Found this bottled at World Market in St. Charles, Illinois. Clear but opaque dark reddish-brown pour with a thick, foamy persistant light tan head. Toasty and strong nose of cherry, plum, oak, sherry and milk chocolate. Amazingly strong flavor of coffee, especially late, raisins, cocoa and caramelly sweetness. Finishes very strong, with a note of alcohol. This is a keeper, although couldn’t drink too many of these!

May 9, 2008 No good. Looked promising with a very deep red and an off white head. Eisbocks should be strong, yes, but they shouldn’t necessarily taste like rubbing alcohol.
I see lots of other notes about fruits, caramel, molasses, etc...frankly, I couldn’t get past the apparent alcohol.

Apr 25, 2008 Smells and looks like a stout. Tastes sweet with a wine aftertaste. taste of plums and raisons. Good beer. Thin compared to a stout and no hops compared to an IPA. First Eisbach rated. Bottle from artusory.

Apr 24, 2008 Dense brown, creamy off white head. Rich caramel coated plum and warm musty fig notes are well layered over softer aromas of cherry molasses and brown sugared grapes. Well balanced deep dark fruit flavors ride waves of warm toasted caramel from start to finish. Just a faint hint of hops shows up late, but this is all about the malt. Medium bodied with pillow soft carbonation. A great after dinner sipper in my opinion…
