Commercial Description:
Dark ruby, glistening mysteriously, streaked with fine, top-fermented yeast, this beer has a compact, stable and long-lasting head. It has an intensive, typically top-fermented clove-like aroma. The palate experiences a gentle touch, on the tongue it is very full-bodied, compact and yet fresh with a hint of caramel. It finishes with a light and delicate taste of bitters leaving behind a strong, smoothly rounded, sour impression.

Deep brown-red colour with a thick white head. The aroma is really complex, there is spices, clove, apple, banana, alcohol... It is full bodied, taste is very complex too, with spices, clove, banana and caramel, really malty. Excellent beer overall. The 8% of alcohol is well hidden.

Best beer ever! Tart, malty aroma with a long lasting head. Flavor is rich and heavy, giving way to exquisite accents of chocolate, apples, caramel and bananas. Surprisingly non-bitter considering its 8.2% alcohol content. An ale for the ages!

The best beer I ever had so far. To me it has a smokey and somewhat fruity flavor.

Caramelly, coffeey, nutty, spicy in aroma...a nice dark brown with a red tint, just a little hazy, like an early morning before the dew has evaporated....just sweet enough for me, not too bitter, for I am a shrew that hath a bitter tongue already, with just a touch of sourness...very light bodied to me for a dark beer...smooth and slick like satin when it touches your lips and slips around your tongue and down your throat like angel’s tears...finishes clean and fresh, with nothing bad lingering... My favorite thus far in my drinking career.

500 ml bottle in Germany. I think that I have found my Mecca. Brown almost cholate body color. Nice brown head with a baked banana aroma. Slightly banana taste. Palate is mellow and very smooth. Alcohol so well hidden I would almost guessed it for the half of what it is. Weizen peices spewing carbonation from the bottom of the glass. Unreal beer. number 1 on my list.
