Feb 25, 2005 Updated: Feb 26, 2005Bottle, thanks to ClarkVV (the DD). Fantastic aroma of brown suggaa, molasses, toffee, raisins, etc, that reminds me of the great doppels and eisbocks from Germany. Big malty flavor with raisins, brown sugar again, figs, prunes. Very smooth and well conditioned. This is very nicely made. I wish it was available in NJ.

Feb 23, 2005 Bottle. Thanks to joeybgood for this! Hazed copper with a small tan head. Nose is wafts of alcohol, rich malts, fruit (banana and plums), caramel and brown sugar. Taste is very sweet and malty with light spice, more fruity notes, alcohol, and caramel. Body is thick and chewy. Mild carbonation and very slick feeling. Finishes with more alcohol, rich, creamy malts, fruity esters, and caramel. NICE!

Feb 20, 2005 Pours dark brown with a tiny off-white head. Glints of ruby when I hold it up to the light. Very pretty. Arom of caramel and an earthy plum. Flavor is sweet nutty caramel changing to more of a roasted chocolate finish that is very lightly bitter. Mmmm Malty. The flavor lasts. Full body, oily texture, very smooth. I really like this beer right now.

Jan 30, 2005 Eisbock darkness with minimal head and apple carbonation. Aroma of Kahlua, vanilla, prunes and sweet malty heaven. Flavor is sweetish, chewy and vanilla spiced. Raisins, grapes, and alcohol with a smooth palate. Not quite as complex or flavorful as Kulmbacher, but very good.

Jan 18, 2005 Poured brown with a small off white head. Aroma was malty and fruity. Caramel, raisin, and peach. Flavors follow the aroma with the sweet malt and fruitiness. Medium to full bodied and sticky.

Jan 14, 2005 Updated: Feb 4, 20052002 bottle HUGE thanks to heemer77 for this one. Man I love eisbocks and this one was fantastic. After a night of pale lagers, crappy winter ales and overall boring, severely undermalted beers this one really saved the day. I don’t particularly feel the need to write my typical 2 page review, I’d rather just enjoy the goodness of this beer. Caramel/toffee, dates and raisins in the nose, with sweet molasses and yeast esters. Strong and malty, chewy, with some light syrupiness and touches of spice. Lightly sour yeast, fruit notes and a clean, flavorful lager finish. The oldest eisbock I’ve had at 2 years of age. One of the better filtered/pasteurised beers Ive had in a while, but somehow, I can handle lagers better when filtered. Glad I have another bottle.
