| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 10, 2009 A pretty malty sweet aroma. Color is a nice brown but the head disappears very rapidly.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jul 10, 2009 Pours a dark coppery brown with thin off-white head. Aroma is sweet and malty, with notes of honey and caramel. Flavor is similar malty sweetness with some brown sugar. Slightly thin mouthfeel and malty finish. Decent, but nothing to write home about.

| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 7, 2009 Bottle.

Average duration, moderate sweetness, light acidity and bitterness. markwise (1200), 15 Minutes from Kuhnhenn in, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 6, 2009 I don’t know that I would call it a doppel, but it is not a bad beer overall. Pours red-brown with an off-white head. Nose is reminiscent of Samiclaus- sweet malt, burnt sugar, brown sugar, molasses, cherries/ fruit, and an all-around sweetness. Flavor is about the same with light malt, cloying sweetness, and a corn syrupiness that keeps asserting itself. I keep getting a honey and sugar with some cherry-like fruit in the flavor. Finish lingers with the same fruitiness. Medium-bodied and fizzy, but all-in-all a unique lager. Mutualaid (139), Texas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 6, 2009 Pours dark amber, clear, and with a big foamy, cream colored head. What aroma there I can detect is a nutty maltiness that I get from most Shiner brews. Lots of malt sweetness up front, thin in the middle, and a mildly hoppy finish. Low to medium body. An alright brew that could use a bit more complexity and a bit less sweetness. BBB63 (4274), La Porte, Indiana, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 3, 2009 Bottle and served in standard pint glass: Mahogany with a fading frothy head and minimal lace. The aroma has notes of caramel and bready malts, grassy and herbal hops, hint of pear and plum esters, and a touch of hard water.The taste is mostly sweet malts with a dash of fruit upfront. Very minor bitterness and a dash of nutmeg upon the finish, a tad metallic as well. The mouth feel is sprite and lively, a bit thin and chalky. Overall, a very quaffable brew and better than expected. Palidor19 (1798), Brandon, Florida, USA
