Oct 30, 2007 GABF 2007: Poured a very clear chestnut color with a good sized tan head. Caramel malt aroma. Not overly sweet which could happen with these. Caramel flavor with hints of raisins. Medium to full body that seems to be thin for an eisbock. Good warmth.

Oct 26, 2007 GABF ’07. Pours hazy brown with an average, frothy, light brown head, lasting with good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (cookie, caramel, nutty), light hops (flowers, grass), average yeast (dough, earth) with notes of dates and brown sugar. Full bodied, alcoholic texture, lively carbonation, and a bitter finish. Average duration, moderate sweetness, acidity, and bitterness.

Apr 19, 2007 they say it’s 18%. can’t taste it until it gets warm, then ....woah!. smells really sweet, sticky sweet. tastes very rich, raisiny, malty and little hoppy. almost like an icewine....too much focus on the booze and not the character.

Mar 28, 2007 Draft at papago with unclematie. Dark brown with thin tan head. Aroma was a bit fruity and sweet. Tastes of malts, caramel, and fruit, maybe rasins or prunes with a little alcohol at the end. Not my favorite at papago but still pretty good.

Mar 12, 2007 Updated: Mar 13, 2007On draft at Papago w/ Bockyhorsey and wife, cheers! Poured a dark brown color, thin head covering, fancy in the snifter. Server said it was 18-20%, although the aroma and flavor didn’t have a kick, nor did any after effects (probably more like 10%ABV, imo). Flavor was astringent, caramel, brown sugary flavors, minty, quite malty, yet just not smooth and enjoyable. Can’t kill it for being to hot, nor overly sweet, yet it was malty and astringent, not a great production. One has to accomplish much more with a product containing this much alcohol.

Feb 20, 2007 Updated: May 4, 20077th Annual Strong Beer Festival, Mesa, Az. Fermented fruit aroma. Rusty brown body with tan head. Flavor was full of sweetness and had an alcohol kick. Little spice also. Little too sweet for me.
