Jun 24, 2008 Bottle: pours a dark brown with a thin tan head, sweet aroma of malt, taste of dark fruits, malt, toffee, a little bitter. Certainly one of the best German beers available.

Jun 23, 2008 Updated: Jul 31, 2008pours a Deep red with a bountiful off white head. overwhelming sticky malty aromas permeated by darkfruits - raisins and sweet dates. my taste buds tingled with the malt assualt upon first sip. once they adjusted, roasty flavors and very slight hops made their way through. dark sugars, molasses and dates give it a rich sweetness that blends well with the maltiness. Fantastic, Everything a bock lover could hope for

Jun 17, 2008 This beer really knocked me on my can! Drank it in the bottle first, but then found it on tap in Germany. Great head, strong malty taste, and you can really taste the hops. This is my idea of a dessert beer

Jun 16, 2008 Had this on a beer tasting event on a cruise ship. Really strong doppelbock. Smells fabulous, looks great. The flavor is very strong, toasted, dark. Super malty. Creamy, enjoyable palate. Really quality doppelbock- not really my style, and super filling so I only had a couple before I switched to something lighter. Recommended.

Jun 16, 2008 from bottle. Settles in glass a dark brown with a tan head that dissipates fairly quickly. Aroma of chocolate and caramel malts, barley, molasses, and dates. Very nice. Flavor of sweets and smokiness, I tasted chocolate, burnt crème brulee, roasts, dark fruit, bread and malt. Delicious and complex. Palate is just so smooth and creamy! Tastes like a rich dessert in a bottle. Certainly one of the best tasting beers I’ve had.

Jun 13, 2008 [Bottle] Poured a clear deep mahogany with a finger of tan head. Aroma is strong with malt, a little bit of soy sauce, and a hint of hops. Flavor is extremely rich and just fills your mouth with flavor. Tons of malt that gives it the nice dark fruit flavor as well as lots of caramel and toffee. Just a hint of bitterness on the back end. Awesome.
