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.

[22oz Bomber - Johns Market] A deep brown color with a light head. A very deep spciy brew with a good malt flavor. The aroma was great and this was a very good drinking Weizen Bock. Deep in flavors and a good rich high alochol content.

2006 bottle, aged nearly 2 years. Pours an extremely dark crimson color that appears black from a distance. A large, foamy, tan head leaves random flares of lacing behind. The aroma shows a sweet and malty base of dark caramel, banana bread, gingerbread, and nutmeg. I’m definitely getting a "baked goods" feel on the nose. The flavor is more of the same, with ultra-rich caramelized malts, cocoa, banana, cinnamon, and bready yeast all coming through fairly strong. Very little hop character, as the malts clearly dominate this one. Slightly more substantial than medium-bodied, but most of the fullness seems to come from sugar. Overly sweet up front, transitioning to a sour, dry, woody note on the finish. I’ve been digging this style recently, but this one is just a bit too sweet for my liking.

Picked this 22 ounce bomber up at Hi Time. The bar code didn’t scan, so they only charged me $1.67 for it. What a steal! This pours very dark brown with red highlights. The head is tan, and very meringue/creamy textured. The aroma is malty with some overripened fruit. The 9.5% ABV is beautifully hidden. The flavor starts out slightly sweet & tasty and finishes smoothly. All in all a very enjoyable beer.
