Some sweetness in the malty aroma. Brilliant clear golden amber color. Some carbonation is there, but head is a mere ring around the edge of the glass. This is what I would term a doppel-maibock. The light, almost corn-syrup sweetness of the malt is blended toward the end of the profile with some green-tasting hops. Finish has some effervescence and more sweetness. Caramel and Cara-Pils malts extremely evident here. Lots of unfermented sugars. All in all, not a bad brew, a little bit different. Better than the Weizenbock, definitely. Style fits the season which it is released in.

Small white head that,s short lived. Clear copper colored brew. Light malty nose, light graininess. Body is medium with a light carbonation. Medium sweet malt flavors, lightly bready, Faint notes of honey and a touch of caramel. Mildly sweet finish. Alcohol is well hidden.

12 oz bottle. Pours with a big head and an aroma of grain and corn. Nice and hoppy but also bland in the malt and very uninspiring.

This brew pours a small head of fine white bubbles and a transparent light orange brown body. It had a mild malt aroma. This brew had a smooth initial flavor and no fore or after bite. I did not understand this brew and I would definately not call it a Doppelbock.

Definitely didn’t think this brew was 8% ABV. Strong notes of malt with some toffee characters. Not a lot of hops but everything was pretty well blended. Decent brew.

Decent light doppelbock, doughy malts, big bodied staying on the sweeter side. Felt a bit flat which emphasized the heaviness to it and sweetness of it. Pours deep gold, good clarity, with a thin white head.
