On tap @ beer Fest French Quarter New Orleans. Pours a golden orange. Little to no head. Alomost malt liquor taste. Sweet malts & wheaty taste. Different but not totally unpleasant

On tap at La Bayou on Bourbon St. Poured an orangish light amber with a weak head. The taste exhibits the better points of macro high gravity beers. Malty taste without the alchohol. This one could definetly sneak up on somebody if they didn’t know it was higher alcohol. You can sorta taste the hops in the aftertaste, very nice but it doesn’t last long.

a good, cheap high gravity beer. it’s a cloudy yellow color with no head. sweet taste and strong potency without the sting.

Cleaner and drier than most Dopplebocks. None of the "malt liquor" quality that some dopplebocks (unfortuneately) exhibit. It’s high alcohol content is very subtle from a taste standpoint. This one tastes like a good but fairly generic pale ale, rather than a slap-ya-mama brew. It could sneak up on the unsuspecting. Also, I’m almost completely sure the heading on this page is wrong. According to people I’ve talked to at the Abita brewery, this one actually runs 10 - 10.5% alcohol, not 8.

On tap. Poured a medium golden color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of alcohol, spicy, grainy, and somewhat fruity. Tastes of fruitiness, grains, and the same pepper spiciness. Some alcohol in the finish.

Got this on draft with some bbq at Fiery Ron’s, Poured golden yellow with a decent head. Smelled sweet and had a high alcohol note as well. Tasted heavy and thick and finished with some heavily fermented wheats. Overall very sweet though for a doppel.
