Jan 12, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Looks very like the Spezial from the brewery. The aroma is modest malty. The flavor in the beginning very washy, not lilke a bock. In the end a little bit more malty. Not very strong. Only an average bock.

Oct 11, 2007 Medium beige lasting head. Hazy dark red translucent body. (Hmmm. Looks identical to the schwarzbier.) Sugary lightly roasted peppery llicorice aroma, with earthy notes. (Hmmm. Smells similarly to the schwarzbier.) Sweet and dry toffee and licorice taste with light roasty notes. Faint pepper notes. Full-bodied, yet slightly watery. Dry earthy licorice and toffee aftertaste. (Hmmm. Taste is different from the infected schwarzbier.) Very nice! (0.3l draft at the brewpub.)
