Jan 1, 2009 22 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy dark amber color with a medium sized creamy beige head. The aroma has a moderately sweet maltiness with a mild amount of floral and spice. The flavor is lightly malty and overly sweet. Honey, citrus, floral and peppery are sensations that come to mind. This would be better with a larger malt presence. The alcohol is completely hidden in this beer. Medium bodied with a smoothness as it goes down.

Jun 12, 2008 Pours an amber body with plenty of sweet carmel notes and a tiny of spice. The high ABV isn’t concealed very well, midpalate has a little bit of brandy or some other spirit. cherrywood aromas in the head.

May 10, 2008 Bottle; color was a nice looking amber with a medium to large off white/khaki head. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, yeast and pepper; some fruit as well. Flavor was a touch sour, probably past its prime. What could be detected of the intended flavor was decent; sweet malt, pepper and alcohol. Will try to have again to get a more accurate rating.

Feb 29, 2008 22oz bottle thanks to xnoxhatex for this sample. Pours a clear orange-yellow with a white head. Grainy nose. Lightly sweet and strange. Something off, a bit sour? Similar flavors. Grains, toasted malts, citrus. This is definitely not a doppelbock. If they want to make it a maibock, they should stick with that. But I think this might be another bottling problem, plus age equals another strange 2 brother brew. I feel like I shouldn’t rate their bad bottles (and I haven’t on a few occasions) but it seems too common place with them.
