Feb 27, 2008 Bottle thanks to jsquire. Poured a cloudy deep brown color with a moderate beige head that diminished to a ring. Aroma of brown sugar, biscuits, and light fruit. Sweet brown sugar and caramel entry leads into a smooth finish with fruity undertones, namely apple, and possibly a hint of plum. Pretty creamy and smooth. Simple, but a nice doppelbock that is easy to drink. Thanks Jeff.

Dec 20, 2007 Bottle. Aroma bready and caramel. Poured a dark brown. Flavor was toasted malts and grassy hops. Palate was sticky and sweet. Overall, okay just not one I’d seek out again.

Nov 7, 2007 Not a bad Dopple Bock (nowhere near the level of Celabrator or Paulaner). Nice aroma of toasted chocolate and caramel malts.

Oct 4, 2007 After a miserable experience with their dunkel, I was a little apprehensive about this beer. I do enjoy a nice doppelbock and Celebrator has set the standards very high for me. The beer pours out a dark brown color, deep ruby red when held to a light. A one-finger thick off-white head floats atop the beer but quickly melts away leaveing little evidence there was a head in the first place. Aroma is roasted malts and light caramel. Nothing overly sweet or roasted. Flavor is the same with a little more sweetness showing on the palate, balanced out nicely with the acrid roast. A nice beer, nothing complex. Smooth finish, tasty. Recommended!
