on tap-pours a light tan head and mahogany color. Aroma is candy sugar, medium/dark malt-sweet caramel. Taste is candy sugar, medium/dark malt-sweet caramel, yeast, leaning towards a dubbel bock, dark fruit, secondary hops bite, spices. OK carbonation.

Draft... Mostly clear mahogany lager with a mid-sized, frothy, off-white head. Good retention. Malty, fruity nose and flavor with notes of caramel, toffee and honey. Proper hopping allows the malt to roam freely without overstepping its bounds. Full-bodied and fatty with prickly carbonation. Lengthy, moderately sweet, honey finish that winds up almost dry.

My Bottom Line:
The fruity caramel maltiness and earthy noble hops of this tasty dunkler bock create a comforting flavor sequence which remains drinkable throughout despite its chewy malt abundance.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam covers the clear dark red hues.
-The body is definitely huggable.
-Again, this is served way too cold to be thoroughly enjoyed.
-The finish is clean and supporting hops are able to dry out most of the maltiness.
-Carbonation’s a little fizzy, not necessarily fitting the style, imho.

On tap at the brewpub.
