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.

(Bottled, 0.66l) Very dark reddish brown with a small, tanned head. Sweetish, banana-estery aroma with mild roastiness and some fusely alcohol. Fruity and peppery-spicy flavor with moderately roasted malt, and a quite strong, burning alcohol presence. Medium, slightly thin body can’t quite hide the alcohol. Lowish carbonation. Quite Imperial Stout -like (hoppy and roasty) for a Weizen Bock. Not bad, but deserves a big minus for the alcoholic feel. Gets more tolerable with yeast, though.

Bottle: Very dark red with a thin tan head. Only a light malty aroma. But this is a bountifully full brown-sugar, roasty-sweet beer. Raisiny, almost like Raisin wine? Excellent, big beer.

Poured a reddish brown color with a small, diminishing, off white head, that left faint lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet caramel malts, citrus fruits, banana, nuts, and clove. Taste of sweet caramel, tart citrus fruits, with more banana, light roast, and vanilla as well. Alcohol is well hidden.
