Commercial Description:
Something has gone terribly wrong (or terribly right depending on your view) in the Brewhouse. One of the brewers must have added too much malt to the mash and made a very strong beer. Stronger than your used to from the brewery that makes authentic German styles. This super strong beer has put the whole place in a state of pandemonium.

- The beer is golden colored but very heavy with alcohol of about 8% by volume. It’s dangerously easy to drink, so as the bottle label states: “You’ve been warned.”

Pours too clear, light coppery orange. Boring. Boring. Bor-ring. Sweet grainy nose. Thin, quaffable. Bland, boring, but easy-going, like some people I know. Disappointing.

Golden-amber colour, but slightly dull. Not much head. The aroma is pale malts and light spice. Light spice and vague malt on the palate. Light caramel. Not finding the promised pandemonium; this is pretty bland.

Pours a clear amber color with a thick, creamy, off-white head that leaves a little lacing. Aroma of sweet malty grain with some apples and a dash of hops. The flavor is almost overpoweringly sweet. Raisins and a grainy bitterness with some very noticeable alcohol notes. Some apricot and a little bit of vanilla in the finish. A medium to heavy body that leaves a bittersweet taste in the mouth.

Tampa. Fl. - Total Wines - 22 oz bottle oz bomber. Bright medium golden pour with a thin white head that dissipates quickly. Brief aroma of hard candy and fresh lake water. Flavor has some brief maple syrup, hint of cotton candy and perhaps some toffee. Nothing in here sets your taste buds on fire, but a pleasant diversion. Clean. even mouthfeel.

Deep golden in color with a fluffy off-white head of medium-sized bottles. The nose gives off sweet aromas of caramel, malt, candied oranges and bananas foster. In the mouth this was medium-bodied with nice richness in the midpalate as well as an oiliness. Simple but well-balanced.
