On tap at the beer store sf. Nice copper brown with a creamy white head. Sweet candy and malt aroma. Molasses candy brown sugar taste.

On tap at City Beer in SF. Doppelbock, really? That is a strange classification for a beer that, for me at least, comes off almost like an imperial red or something. Pours a mostly clear amber color with a nice off-white head. Aroma is caramel malt, dark fruits, and citrusy hops. Flavor is a somewhat generic malt profile, some caramel, slight raisin, orange, and apricot, and citrusy hops. Body is medium and palate is somewhat lively with high carbonation. Overall, above average but nothing too interesting.

Deep amber pour with a short lived 2 finger head.Aroma malty sweet with maybe some raisin. First sip was semi boozy malt raisin , molasses with a thick mouth feel and dry finish. The dry finish went away shortly into it. Very stomach warming too. The name is deceiving calling it a lager when it’s gotta be a strong doppelbock. Not bad but the thick booziness made it take a while to finish

I was surprised at this - it was a solid doppelbock. Sweet, pruney-cherry aroma. Lots of cherry and chocolate in the flavor profile, boozy and not terribly metallic. Oily mouth. Beats some of the other wierd stuff from this brewery.

Bottle. Pours a dark amber brown with a small off-white head. Aroma of caramel, brown sugar, toffee and alcohol. Flavor was rich and smooth with sweet malts, brown sugar, raisins, caramel and alcohol with a medium to full body and has a dry and sweet finish.

Bottle: Thanks to rsamayoa. Thick and heavy, alcohol presence is overwhelming. Food Pairing: Strong aged cheese.

Thanks to rsamayoa, drank it at his birthday. What a blast. Full bodied like engine oil, exremely sweet, and over powering. Alcohol very present.
