| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 15, 2005 Clear, ruby brown with a thin, white cover and ring. Lots of bready pumpernickel in the aroma, along with molasses and grain. The flavour is what one would expect after experiencing the aroma: sweet cereal grains, pumpernickel like a barleywine but with more malt character, probably owing to the lagerness of this beer. No alcohol flavour, notes of german hops, and some dark malt. Medium to full body with moderate carbonation and not overly sweet. Probably the best value ever. fredandboboflo (1404), East Setauket, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 26, 2008 Bottle at Peculier Pub. Raisins, alcohol, maybe some molasses. Smooth, but still weighty in the mouth. Just not my thing? Gr0ve (1399), Oslo, Norway
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 15, 2009 330 ml bottle. Very dark colour, almost black, with ruby red
hues. Strong chocolatey caramel aroma. Sharp hops initially, but
that is soon replaced by lots of chocolate flavours. Mellow soft
texture. Much like ovamaltine. Hints of raisins and wood, but it is
the chocolate and the caramel that dominates. Thick body, but not at
all cloying. A rich malty beer, which is surprisingly
drinkable. Best before 22.10.04. Cavie (1387), Fort Worth, Texas, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jun 2, 2009 Dark ruby pour. Strong aroma. Smells of fermented fruit and aged grapes. Definitely a red wine type of flavor with a slightly dry finish. Alcohol is not tasted at all. My first eisbock and a superb sample! iwantalambic (1386), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Feb 25, 2004 330 mL capped bottle [drink by 31.12.03, sampled 25.2.04]: a dark plum liquid with a dense, tightly bubble growing foam. Thick, chewy Grape-Nut aroma with strong dark wheat notes and fleshy alcoholic plums. Wonderful tingling carbonation. Full earthy flavours with soft sweet green apple meat, caramel raisins, thick syrupy malts, soft black breads, and bitter alcohol. Wonderfully full fruity finish.
