Thanks DrBayern (Hey Matt) Pours a deep ruby from 11.2 oz bottle. Formed medium size off white foamy head.. Aroma was of sweet malted caramels. Flavour was of a smooth bitterness, hops, malts, roasted nuts. What a pleasant suprise, very good beer from our friends in Germany. I would love to try it on tap. Really reminds me of a Barleywine stlye beer, superb!
Mahalo Matt, you were right. ;)

Jul 6, 2008 Finally a high-gravity and highly hopped German bier. My love for Uerige’s other biers notwithstanding, this bier is fantastic Darker than the normal Alts, the aroma is malty and alcoholic. Make sure you don’t drink this too cold.

Jul 4, 2008 Bottle. Interesting shape and jazz. Pours a amber copper body. Aroma/flavor is sweet chocolate malt, nuttiness, dark fruit, raisin. A solid beer but pricey even at 8.5%

Jun 29, 2008 A clear dark brown beer with a thick dissipating light moka head. A nice aroma of licorice, dried dark fruits and warming alcohol. In mouth, loads of licorice, warming alcohol, burned coffee beans, lingering in mouth. Rich bodied. Shared with Probstk. Thanks Karl for sharing this with me.

Jun 21, 2008 33cl bottle, a very interesting flip top bottle- pours with a light carbonation, swamp water hazy brown, very slight head/lacing. Very ripe dark fruit/ prune aroma, smells candy sweet. Taste is ripe dark fruits/ prune/ dried fruit, slightest hop presence, trace of molasses, thick malt body. Alcohol stays hidden.This beer needs a food pairing to keep the palate from being tired of it all.
