Deep amber colour. Nose; oranges, apple, spice, canteloupe. Strong flavour, very sweet start, extreme bitter finish. The aroma was so complex and promising it really let down the flavour. Should drink a little warm, and sip like port.

bottle from Interspar Bregenz, bought early in 2008. Clear golden colour with a small white head and visible tiny carbonation. Malty-herbal nose. Full-bodied, intensively malty with lots of herbal hop flavours and hints of honey. Very alcoholic in the lingering bitter-sweet finish.

Bottle, compliments of a friend (not on ratebeer, otherwise i’d credit his username) I found this beer to be very unique compared to everything I’d tried to that point. Does not taste like 9.6% ABV at all. Light malts are present in this brew, which satisfies in every imaginable way.

Well, this sucks. Tiny cap that fades quickly, deep gold brew. Is this an imperial pilsener? Apples with a slight spice (not one that normally would be associated with apples in food) that works well, prunes, caramel that comes across sweet due to the apples, doughy bread. Smells thick and very fruity. This smell sooooo much better after considerable warming. Bleck! So much alcohol. What crap. Kind of apple like, mild caramel, interesting spices that bows down to the overwhelming alcohol. The sweetness and alcohol are finally taking a rest on my guts. Grains... man, I just cannot get into this beer. Thick and not quite oily with a burning aftertaste. Alcohol warms the stomach. If this was a bigger bottle I would have poured the rest.

Dark golden colour with an aroma of malt and caramel. Taste is creamy caramel with malt. Very nice.

Sampled in Kitzbuhl. A pretty serious brew but the taste really was not too good. Pours with a good amount of spice and head. Worth a try but once only.

Yikes. Pale pour with no head whatsoever. Sweet, skunky, corn syrup nose, like prison hooch. Similar flavor, modest body, some old hops, but unbearably cloying. Undrinkable.
