Aug 9, 2007 I can see why this rates so well, I like it though the missus is not that partial to it. Good colour although a short head. Distinctive nose and plenty of smooth malty flavours, warming alcohol, dark fruits and a long finish.

Aug 7, 2007 Updated: Aug 21, 2007Originally reviewed back on 6/28/05. Received 4.8 score. Added to my RB list to check "Germany" as a beer country consumed. Traded with Bierman9 in Boston at a beer fest for a Dark Lord 2005. Fantastic in so many ways. Fig, plum, cherry, strawberry, raisin, creaminess, caramel, nut, dark bread. All dance together in a joyous celebration of beer. Absolutely wonderful.

Jul 16, 2007 500. Thanks, TheWolf! I didn’t realize when I cracked it what a strong rater it’s been. Pours deep murky brown with thick, sudsy off-white head and intermittent webs of lace. Big orangey nose. Some nut there as well. Tingly carb and a nice creamy body for a lager, with forward flavors of mild milk chocolate, sweet brown bread, nuts, and a bit of non-tart citrus. Nice clean finish even with a bit of grain husk linger. Nicely done.

Jul 16, 2007 Updated: Jun 8, 2009Red amber with fine white head. Deep malty caramel, nutty & bready. Roast bitter taste. Filling medium body. Good lacings. Light warmth from alcohol - and light sweet as well (dark fruits & sugar). Bitter light sticky end! One of the best doppelbock’s iv tasted for sure. Rerating June 09. A notch down. Too much rye-bread and not as chewy as remembered. Alcohol and metal disappoints a bit.

Jul 16, 2007 Black and strong. Lots of flavour especially, coffee and chocolate and a worderful burned finish. Lots a sweetness in this beer. I would characterise this beer to have a medium to full body,
