Bottle. It pours a nice ruby to brown body, almost clear, with a beige head. Caramel, roasted malt and sweetness in the aroma, sure not on the hoppy side, though there are some fruity notes. Sweet, caramel flavor with some fruityness, leading to a lightly fruity and hop-bitter finish. Quite dryish, medium body. Sure, it’s a nice brew, but their regular doppelbock is better. (080314)

Mar 5, 2008 Deep dark amber colored with little light brown head. Chocolaty and mildly nutty aroma with slight alcohol and slight cardboard. Medium bodied. Flavor is also doppelbockish with dominating nuts and chocolate, mild alcohol also here. Aftertaste dries with some hops, fine doppelbock here with straightforward tones, not too complicated. I like this.

Mar 2, 2008 Red mahogany with a small, but creamy head. The aroma is slightly sweet, not very strong with light notes of malt and nuts and hints of fruit. The mouthfeel is rather oily. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of malt nicely balanced with a citrussy bitterness, hints of dark fruits and nuts. It’s very uncomplicated.
