Commercial Description:
Unlucky 13? If anything, 13 has been a lucky number and year for us! Here is our version of a Weizen Doppelbock, a very rarely brewed style marrying the complexities of two great German traditions, Weiss and Doppelbock. The aroma is dominated by fruity and spicy esters produced by the German Weiss yeast strain with a dry drinkability from the wheat malt. The flavor and color are dominated by the unique specialty grains that produce the Doppelbocks flavors of fresh baked bread, toffee and cocoa, and a dark-ruby red hue. Since goats have traditionally adorned Bock labels, we chose a Rocky Mountain Goat for this Rocky Mountain Bock. Peace to all and follow your dreams! Brewed with Rocky Mountain water, malted barley, malted wheat, imported German specialty grains and hops, and one unique German yeast.

Black with nice head and good ruby highlights. Smell is nice. Taste has wheat characteristics some toffee flavors. The maltiness sweetness from the bock also really shine through.

Aged one year. Dark brown/amber color with big frothy tan head and beautiful lacing. I smelled bananas immediately after opening, which faded to a weak malty and spicy aroma. Dominant malt flavor, with nice sweetness and light fruits. Complex, full-bodied and delicious

Had this beer on 6/2/2006. Aroma is a mild sweet malt scent. Color is a deep solid brown with good carbonation and thick tight head. Taste is rich and sweet. Starting with a medium body it goes down sweet with a rich feel. Finish comes on with the rich feel building and ending with a rich sweet caramel taste and a hint of bitterness. Great brew and an excellent Anniversary Ale. Its almost a Barley Wine.

clear brown, nice fine beige head, sweet rich chocolate and banana aroma sprinkled with pepper, creamy body, rich chocolate flavor with great banana character, hint of alcohol, nice sweetness blends well with the chocolate and banana
-------- /> Date: 06/22/2006
Mode: bottle

fine brown head swirls up nicely to leave a bit of lace that slides back down the glass and the head gets wispy, rich chocolate flavor with a nice peppery character, no change from the original thimble

Poured deep chestnut with opaque black colors. The brew opens with a controlled and sturdy malt presence but evolves into different and complex flavors Overall nice brew.
