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.

22 oz bottle at a Nertz party. One of the favorites of the night. Sweet aromas with hints of banana. Dark fruit flavors with some spice and more banana. Very very good

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.

Dark brown with a small head, almost no lacing. Aroma is banana, roats, yeast, chocolate, caramel, darker fruits. Flavor is the same but overall feels way off balance.. the flavors are all over the place and the mouthfeel was a mess. Light alcohol in the finish. Not my favorite from them.

Bomber. Pours reddish mahogany with good tan head. The aroma is malt, nuts, grain, and a bit of caramel. There is a lot of wheat in the flavor, with some chocolate, some bitter wild berries, and wood. The finish is toasty and slightly alcoholic, and leaves a chocolatey aftertaste. Very interesting.

22oz bottle: Poured dark brown with a full tan head. Aroma of overripe bananas and cookie dough. Flavor is just as the name would suggest: weizen flavors (banana, yeast) mixed with lingering doppelbock qualities (meaty, light soy sauce, light roasted malt). Pretty full body. Rich. Good beer.

Big f’in hiss as the cap comes off, pouring a dismal, translucent (goddamn filtered weizenbocks) mahogany color with a tan spiderweb head. Chocolate port and sherry team with cherry loumbourd, green cloves, and a blend of concord grapes and rock candy crusted on brown sugared bran. Mild vanilla aromatics are overcome by portly, spiced phenols that dovetail into peanut brittle. Sulfurous ash on tin complacently fades into a dirty twig flavor. Medium cocoa dust is licked off of wire-brush scrubbed cookie sheets. Plum butter gum and cherry spruce pipe tobacco surface intermittently. Spicy pepper and cloves countermand allspice while exuding its propensity to achieve a stretched chocolate malt malfunction. Though the box shows they’re two years expired, the damn cocoa brownies were baked anyways. Adhesive, double stick tape defines the tongue stop, with brown sugar baked prunes meandering at the outset, along with generic, cocoa-sweetened, stale bran and an over-abundance of cloves. Burnt chocolate wheat and too much bitterness down the stretch bring about a finish that couldn’t have come soon enough. Thirteen fucking years. Thanks for the bomber, tpkenned!

Dark brown with a fleeting head. Malty sweet smell of black licorice. Full bodied and very smooth. Good malt driven taste is sweet dark malt with a mild earthy smokiness. Alcohol is well cloaked. taste was better than i expected. 2207

Dark pour that is not quite black, with a thick cream colored head. Berries and chocolate nose with a bit of dust. Tangy oatmeal, caramel, chocolate milk mix, nutmeg, a bit of banana flavor. Finish is dry with a noticeable alcohol bite., oh yeah, 9.5% that explains that I guess. Port like flavors. Not a bad beer. Ap-4 ar-7 tas-7 pal-3 ov-14
