Aug 8, 2009 Rich dark copper to brown pour., light of tan head. Dark Sugar/fruit scent among other things. Smooth taste. Can’t believe its 12% Alc! Very good flavor and as I finish....I feel the 12%.

Aug 2, 2009 A nice dark brown pour, the color of mahogany with a 2" tan head. Dark fruits, raisin bread, LME/malt syrup and caramel dominate the nose. Huge wheat, malts, spices and dark fruits in the flavor. It doesn’t shy away from the sweeter side of things, which is a beautiful thing here. Alcohol seems well under control and a secondary aspect of the beer. Great price too.

Jul 31, 2009 Pours a dark hazy brown. Thin tan head that disspates quickly. Aroma is raisins, figs and a hint of wheat. Flavor is remarkable--dried chrerries, raisins, a hint of yeast and candi sugar. If you didn’t look at the label, you’d thing you were drinking a good abt. The mouthfeel is thick and coating (in a good way) and the alcohol, while warming, is very muted considering the ABV. Basically, they took everything that was good about the original Aventinus and magnified it. Truly awesome beer.

Jul 30, 2009 Crazy alcohol in this one...bit of a burn after the first sip accompanied by banana, yeast, and caramel malt. Nose is sweet, but with out any really distinguishable aromas. Flavor is toffee, brown sugar, and biting alcohol. Medium mouthfeel. Wouldn’t get this one again.

Jul 30, 2009 Sampled in a 12 oz bottle. Pours dark and wow, full of incredible malts. Wow. It is incredibly intense. A really nice brew. This is a very well crafted brew. Aroma is semisweet. But the real part of this beer is its malts. They are absoluately fantastic.
