| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 5, 2008 pours a really impressive dark brown contracted with a nice light coloured head. The rocky head was sustained by what seemed like slightly high carbonation.
Overall: A very tasty and warming beer I think the alcohol and higher Final Gravity make this a sipper.
Aroma and Flavors are similar - Some earthy notes (wheat) spices, touch of banana and some dark roast like cocoa. Some dark fruit notes make an appearance as the beer warms up.
I think the slightly higher carbonation helps dry the beer out but the bite is distracting. Maybe the sample I had was not handled well but I think this could be even better.
Another wonderful beer from Mahr’s. If you ever get a chance to try the unfiltered lager on tap dont miss the opportunity it is spectacular

Looks not like a beer but a tall blond lady in a long black dress. More of a Bock and less of a Weizen. But still a great beer. unclemattie (2418), Georgia, USA
