Jun 8, 2007 Courtesy of Papsoe. Thank you, Henrik. The aroma is extremely malty and can be detected at arms length, as I pour. There is an odd oxidized aged barley wine aroma to it along with caramel, dark bread and muted dark fruit notes. The body is river water brown with a quickly diminishing tan head. Sweet pumpernickel and rye bread fore is very toasty and has strong caramel accents. The aroma had me turned off and ready for a let down, but this tastes very good. There is a long lasting round candy caramel sweetness that goes allt he way into the aftertaste. It just lingers and lingers with this fat candy flavor. How in the freaking hell did this earn a 42 overall score!!!? This is a damn good doppelbock!
