The version I sampled was an 8.0% ABV version that they served in a 12 oz glass. Claimed that they could not serve it in a pint glass because of the higher ABV. Whatever. Thin head with good carbonation. Bit surprised at the decent carbonation. Light roasted malt aroma with a hint of spices. Color is a very dark brownish red. Flavor is quite smooth and clean with more malts and a decent alcohol warming which was nice because it was about 55 degrees inside the building. Slightly sweet (caramel) with a pretty clean finish. A decent dopplebock.

Bursting with malty goodness. Thick rocky white head, nearly black in color. Not overly sweet for a Dopplebock. High warming quality in the swallow. The spiciness of the beer does not hit until mid glass. Best served in a snifter.
