Mar 10, 2009 Color is a deep dark amber with good carbonation and a thin head. Aroma is a fruity roasted scent. Taste is roasted, sweet and smoky. Starting with a medium body it goes down easy with a sweet nip on the end. Finish comes on with some dried fruit ( raisin and prune ) then a roasted flavor with a touch of smoke and very easy bitterness. Overall this is a tasty brew with a nice balanced flavor.

Feb 23, 2009 16.9 oz bottle from Market of Choice. Dark amber pour with a nice small beige colored head. Very pleasant roasted caramel flavor with some molasses and chewy nut flavors. Very nice nutty and caramelly aroma as well. My third straight winner from the oldest brewery in the world.

Feb 19, 2009 Has roasted and caramel malt smell.
Pours a dark amber color that appears clear with a rich eighth inch biege head. Too dark to see anything.
Smooth roasted caramel taste throughout not burnt.
Moderate to full bodied and resiny not syrupy or watery with lively soft carbonation.
Very smooth, with a hint of being chewy, a session Doppelbock that is not to sweet.

Feb 12, 2009 Pours dark brown with a fizzy, beige head; looks very much like a cola in the glass. Malt aromas of hazelnuts and toast with a hint of dates; no hop bouquet. Thankfully not as sweet as many doppelbocks but not as complex either. Caramell and prune up front finishing with leather, molasses and grain husk qualities that are not entirely pleasant. A bit of an aged hop flavor, perhaps? Body is thin for the style. I really want to like this beer, but the finish is just not tasty.
