| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 27, 2004 Rich, full, malty aroma, dark fruits abound along with notes of milk chocolate, faint cherry, vanilla, banana, walnut, toffee and an underlying tobacco earthiness. Unusually deep, dark mahogany color, filtered, with a fine, slight head and stippled lace. Flavor is predominantly sugary and fruity, with some dark breadiness up front, then drenched with toffeeish and caramel sweetness, while towards the long finish notes of licorice, raisin, butterscotch and plum emerge. Full bodied to be sure, palate is thin and smooth, the effervescence low. An excellent choice for a nightcap or dessert. Not quite as remarkable as I recall the original Kulmbacher Reichelbrau product being, but it has been several years, of course. Cheers, Jeff. OD40oz (603), Box Elder, South Dakota, USA

Unique taste, almost caramel with a bit of chocolate. I wasn’t expecting much as I got a single of this for 2.99 but it was a damn good beer. npdempse (931), St. Petersburg, Florida, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Oct 10, 2006 Very dark, though clear, with a quickly diminishing, sizzling head. Nose is quite sweet, full of caramel, melanoid notes, and notable alcohol. Flavor is sweet and rich with a pleasant dry bitterness. Plummy, slightly chocolatey, wonderful. Mouthfeel is just slightly thin and a bit overly effervescent. mrkimchee (1414), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 25, 2004 Updated: Oct 11, 20042003 vintage. Dark, ruby body with light carbonation and thin, loose, soapy, gray head. Nice complex aroma of cherries, figs, molasses, prunes, roasted nuts, and chocolate. Huge malty-cola with dried fruit elements, but considerably less pruny than the Aventinus Eisbock. Appealing as a sipper. Palate is thick and sticky like warm syrup, but nice and appealing. Very solid and enjoyable all-around. I'd love to try one of these after extended cellaring. beerguy101 (3972), Newark, California, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 16, 2005 330ml bottle brewed 10/22/04. Deep brown color. Large sized white foamy head, with long lasting lacing. Aroma is brown sugar, molasses, fruit and malt. A medium bodied Eisbock. Malts are sweet with lots of brown sugar and molasses flavors, some breadyness. Soft flavors, little to no carbonation presence. Hints of chocolate and vanilla. Perhaps a little thin in the mouth, but that may be due to the lack of carbonation. Nice beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
