Aug 4, 2005 Remarkably tart. Think that this was provided by the yeast and if perhaps something was beginning to go awry, it was doing so in a beautiful manner. I didn’t get the banana esters and such that I might have expected, but the malt was fine and I trly enjoyed this. Rasins for sure. Maybe it was/is me that’s off kilter, but not a lot I can do about that. And I absolutely love the label art.

Aug 3, 2005 WOW… this is a terrific beer! Pours a hazy coco brown and a lasting khaki head. The flavor and aroma are delicate yet dominating! There is a wonderful earthy complexity to this master opus. Notes of chocolate and toffee are candid at every encounter. Hints of brown sugar, banana and raisin are recessed by a yeasty breadyness… pumpernickel and damp bundled wheat… old burlap. A striking spicy finish of cracked black pepper and spruce logs find their way into the wrapping up. This beer is simply straightforward and satisfying from beginning to end!
- Mahr’s very best offering, IMO!

Jul 9, 2005 Malty and spicy aroma with figs and a mild spice. Dirty brown color with a fast fading head. Sweetness in the fore of stewed prunes that fades into an almost carbonationless malt finish.

Jun 27, 2005 Hazy, dark brown pour with huge, creamy, off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt, figs, wheat, corn flakes. Nice, complex aroma. Tastes caramel malty, with a firm, wheaty, fruity finish. Complex, dense, fruity palate, with some spices and cognac as it warms. This one reminds me a lot of Westy 12.

Jun 22, 2005 Dark orange, almost amber body. Aroma of almonds and a hint of citrus based cleaner. There is also a little bit of spice of clove. The taste begins a littel tart with some apples and caramel. There is also some cobwebs here. Surprisingly sweet after the tartness.

Jun 14, 2005 Tartish, feels like all-malt and no hops.
smooth, with a mild lemony feel. Refreshing

May 27, 2005 Dark malt aroma, some chocolate and wheat, a bit vegetal. Nice tongue coating mouth feel. Caramalts and wheat, a touch sticky. Tiny hint of cola, appley. This one seems a bit unfocused compared to the other Mahr’s beers i’ve had. Somehow at the same time neither bocky nor wheaty enough for my tastes.

May 18, 2005 fruity, slightly acidic cola flavor with some yeastiness, and with some ham notes. not my bag, and i’m not going to lie, i bought this because of the funny label.
