May 19, 2009 Clear brown with no head. Aroma is light caramel and mellow spice. Taste is sweet, and a little rice. Smooth, not bad but not great.

May 2, 2009 Bottle: Underrated brew. Pours a brown with a ruby hue and a tan film of head. Sweet earthy aroma- very light peat character with dark caramel and chocolaty sweet notes- clean. Light silky body- nice malt depth- dark caramelized notes and light toasted toffee note mesh with a smoky/peat character. Sweet, but its soft and balanced by the mild smokiness. Remains refreshing despite its rich maltiness. Nice!

Apr 2, 2009 bottle poured a brown color with a tan colored head. aroma has malt, faint roast, sweetness, and some vegetable. flavor has some mild roasted malt, hefty corn sweetness, light chocolate, and a touch of bitterness. really on the bland side and not too exciting for me.

Mar 9, 2009 500ml bottle. Dark brown, nearly black with ruby highlights and a smallish head. Aroma is strong munich malt, very bready and a touch roasty, with some dark fruits lurking in the background. Not the rauchbier I figured I was getting, c’mon the label is on fire, what the hell? Sweet and malty with lots of dark fruits (figs, prunes, dates) and a touch of roast at the finish. This seems like a pretty dark dunkel, but I know they can get that way. All and all an easy drinking beer that shows a lot of nice malt character and is fairly quaffable.

Mar 8, 2009 500 mL bottle. Dark ruby-brown with a small, diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is sweet malt, with a touch of coffee and roast. Perhaps a little vegetal. Flavour is very syrupy sweet and not much else. Just too sweet.

Feb 23, 2009 Bottle. Pours a deep dark reddish brown with a 2 finger beige head that leaves very spotty lacing. The nose is smoky malts, caramel, dark fruits and metal. The taste is sweet caramel malt, prunes, light chocolate and sugar. Medium creamy body. Easy drinker, but nothing special.
