Feb 21, 2009 Ruby brown with a thin tan quickly dissolving crown. Aroma of soy sauce, chocolate and malt. Taste of schokolade, roasted malt, toffee and nuts. Creamy and thin with some mild alcohol evaporation on the tongue that’s a little detracting. Kind of like a dark cream ale.

Feb 6, 2009 Brown body with a thin off white head. Very nutty character in the aroma, some doughiness, and certainly chocolate. The flavor is much of the same with the maltiness really coming through. Palate is a little thin, which is the largest shortcoming for this beer. Definitely an all right beer though.

Jan 21, 2009 Bottle courtesy of CanIHave4Beers. Pours brown with an off white head. Smells earthy with some nutty character. Tastes spicy nd rosey with a dark fruity finish. Some bitterness emerges as the beer warms.

Dec 2, 2008 Deep crimson, minimal head in the shape of a devilish cross.
Smell was pretty chocolatey, minimally lagerish.
Not the most appetizing flavor, but not horrible. Reasonably sweet, definitely lager, very clean, quite a bit of alcohol lingering on the tongue. Not much of that chocolate character remains.

Nov 30, 2008 A decent beer, but not what I would expect as a bock. Small nose. Smooth palate but chewy. Clean but one dimensional. Lacks melanoidans. Easy drinking and enjoyable, but not as complex as it could be.

Nov 26, 2008 Really quite a good beer. Pours a very deep reddish brown with a fluffy head that left some good lace. Plenty of good aromas going on some roasted nuttiness, certainly some chocolate. The flavor follows with the roasty chocolate, some coffee, very nice grainy maltienss that reminds me very much of an authentic German brew. The flavors are very well balanced by a good hop bitterness. The mouthfeel of the beer is mildly silky and well balanced with the slight tinge of alcohol.

Aug 19, 2008 The dark, translucent, chestnut brown body is capped with a small, fleeting, beige head of foam. Virtually no lacing is left behind. The nose is bittersweet and chocolaty, with notes of scorched caramel malts, vanilla crème liquor, roasted barley, and cocoa powder. Flavors include dark caramello, woody earth, mild dark spices, and a good amount of nutty chocolate. The palate is medium bodied and soft, drinking smooth and finishing on the dry side. This is a pretty solid brew. It sort of reminds me of a nut brown mixed with a chocolaty bock.

Aug 13, 2008 Musty malt and chocolate aromas with some fruity accents. Reddish brown transparent body with small bubbly head. Flavor is darkly roasted malt, some bitter chocolate and figs and slight cardboard. Palate is mild with a light bitter chocolaty duration. Good.
