Nov 23, 2009 Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of goryshkewych. Pours a clear orangey brown with a creamy beige head leaving some laces. Sweet malty nose with lots of pumpernickel. Solid body, amazingly pleasant roasted malt base with an extremely smooth and pleasant mouthfeel. Warming alcohol finish. Compares with the best German Doppelbocks! Yummy. 231109

Sep 30, 2009 ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS....let this beer age. It gets softer and its layers of flavor become easier to discern as it ages. I have had both batch 001 and 002 and I can not say a bad word about them. Big malty nose rising from the depths of a mahogany abyss, laced with dried cherries, molasses, and a faint herbal hop tinge in the back ground. I suggest drinking from a liter stein or "das boot" to get the full effect. I don’t know how long they should be kept around, but I have a case of 001 and a case of 002, and they show no signs of oxidizing or turning yet. I can’t wait to see if they can bring another batch around this year!

Aug 22, 2009 750 mL bottle courtesy of CrellMoset. Batch 001. Thanks! Pours a clear ruby-strawberry color with a medium head. Fair head retention and lacing. Dark malty aroma with raisins, toasted coconut, molasses, slight alcohol. The taste seems a bit weak with notes of molasses and raisin. Muted hops. Thin-medium bodied and it just borders on watery.

Jul 11, 2009 Bottle was nearly 2 years old, but much smoother than the regular bock. Still a deep copper color with a nice tan head. Breaddy maltly aroma. Taste was full and smooth. A slight roasty sweet flavor. Creamy and very drinkable. Kudos to the reserve
