2001 bottling. Bright brown-red, high carbonation. Moderate head. Intensely alcoholic aroma with lots of spicy esters and Munich malt. Huge phenomenally smooth body, moderately fizzy. Immense raisiny dark Munich malt flavor, fairly sweet all the way through. Hints of Weizen - clove and banana - but mainly magnificently malty. Thanks to Jay Jackson for the sample! -

Big body. Fizzy. Lots of malt and lots of wheat malt. Good Weissbier flavors. Quite warming. Dark caramel appears in the dry finish. Not as chewy as Aventinus Eisbock; in fact, it's positively light. (Relatively speaking.)Overall Impression (3)
