UPDATED: DEC 21, 2018 'Lahnsteiner Rohminator', 'Charge: 01/16', Fläschchen von BierSelect.de. - Kupferrotbraun, klar; fast schaumlos. - In der Nase plump süße Fruchtigkeit (Kompott) und fast schnapsiger Fusel vor breit karamelsüßem Malz, Anklänge an Portwein. - Antrunk plump karamelmalzig und breit malzsüß. Der Alkohol spielt kräftig mit, dazu Noten von Vanille und dumpfe krautige Hopfenherbe. Milder rezent, mastig. Im Abgang derb nussige Herbe. - Nach dem vorzüglichen Ricklinger Weihnachtsbock genossen kommt mir dieses Bier fast wie die Karikatur eines Doppelbocks vor, zu plump malzig, zu süß und zu fuselig.

Pours reddish brown from the bottle. Fleeting head. Aroma is smoke and caramel. Taste is sweet, full of caramel, toffee, molasses. Finishes almost ridiculously sweet with a sugary malty sweetness and an alcoholic warmth coming to the forefront. Body is medium to heavy. Reminds me of Jacob‘s Malzbier drinks but with a ton of alcohol mixed in. Then again a lot of bocks go that way, but the good ones rise to a higher level through a modicum of complexity. This one—not so much.

Aus der Bügelflasche getrunken. Dunkles Kupferbraun im Glas mit stabilem weißem Schaum. Was für ein Körper. Ein Doppelbock der Extraklasse.

0,33 l Bügelflasche. Charge 01/16. Rotgoldenes Bier mit recht schwachem Schaum. Geschmack sehr intensiv, besonders nach Sahnekaramell. Fast likörige Konsistenz, ähnlich einem Portwein, vollmundig, mächtig. Ein Dessertwein zum Genießen.

Pours a dark amber color. Malty aroma as expected with a hint of barley-wine malts as well. The flavor is slightly sweet and malty,
