May 17, 2006 11.2oz bottle, no date. Pours black with a small beige head. Aroma of raisins, chocolate, roasted malts, brown sugar, alcohol. Taste is pretty much the same, though the alcohol isn’t quite as noticeable. Full-bodied, moderate carbonation. Very good beer. My first eisbock.

Apr 24, 2006 Updated: Apr 25, 2006Bottle purchased at State Line Liquors. Pours deep brown with some red hues fighting to sneak through. Aroma of chocolate covered cherry, raisens. Rich malt flavor of chocolate and dark dried fruits. Some vinous qualities. The alcohol in the finish is pleasant and warming, not that annoying burning that some other beers have. This one is damn good. So good that I am going to get another bottle next time I go in.

Jun 19, 2008 Sample at Defiant. Deep amber in color with a tan head. Aroma is very nice- alot of caramel, dark fruits, somewhat vinous, perhaps a touch of chocolate and alcohol. Taste is big and smooth, alot of caramel, dark fruits, sherry-like, with some light bready yeast, and some alcohol in the finish. Full bodied. Great stuff.

Dec 7, 2008 Updated: Apr 15, 2009My first Eisbock... it’s goona be interesting!
Pours a dark brown color with nice foamy beige head which dissapears. Not that much lacing.
Aroma is maybe not that powerful as some beers, like imperial stouts and barley wines, can be, but still very nice. Malty with lots of liquorice and dried fruits. I also feel something I would describe like some strong wine, maybe port? Nice.
Flavour is rather malty but not that sweet. Notes of liquorice, caramel, lots of dried fruits and dark bread. Pretty similar to the smell. Very well hidden alcohol, though it is slightly warming. Almost excellent taste actually. I really enjoy this.
Very complex - I am sure there is other flavours and aromas I can not detect here.
Mouthfeel is very filling. It feels rather fullbodied with low carbonation, a bit creamy and almost sticky.
Drinkability is rather high for the high ABV. Goes down a bit to easy maybe? Great beer!

Dec 14, 2008 Pours dark red with excellent longlasting light beige head. Aroma of toffee bread and caramell. Taste is sweet with a nice lingering long lasting bitterness. A nice christmas brew.
