Nov 1, 2008 Burnt Molasses and caramel flavors with a a little honey a maple syrup notes. An excellent dopplebock. Small quickly diminishing head with virtually no lacing. Medium bodied. Dark amber/red color. Moderately sweet initial flavor with a lightly bitter finish. A syrupy texture with soft carbonation.

Oct 26, 2008 Tap @ BBF ’08. Dark brown beer, beige head. Aroma of burnt malts, caramel, a bit of rye. Flavour is sweet, malty, deep roasted malts, some coffee indeed, surprisingly spicy finish. Fullbodied. Not an average bock.

Oct 23, 2008 Updated: Jan 13, 2009Ayinger Celebrator step aside. This is the new king of dobbelbocks. Pours a dark ruby- almost black- with a small off-white head. Nose is very sweet with lots of malt, caramel, raisins, milk chocolate, and dark fruits. Taste is chocolately and sweet with a lot of malted milk ball taste. The hops refuse to kick in until the very end and create a nice balanced finale. Excellent- perhaps a little too sweet.

Oct 18, 2008 Slight gushing fills the neck then pours a dark ruby body looks black away from the light with a thin but lasting cover of light tan almost off white head. Creamy chewy aromas, prunes, plums, chocolate and mollasses some brine and licorice. Taste is very chocolatey more salty brine and licorince then a strong alcohol finish. A heavy palated finish of prunes and chocolate lingers.

Oct 15, 2008 Beautiful ruby red/chestnut brown appearance, modest off-white head. Nice malty aroma, with notes of dark fruits, raisins, caramel. The flavor caramel, fruits like raisins, figs. The finish is a little wierd: a decent balancing act between the sweet fruit and the subtle, slightly bittering hops. I think some of this bittering may come from roasted malts as well. Finally, the finish is a little sour. Good dopplebock overall.

Oct 9, 2008 Bottle. Pours beautifully, you can see the carbonation bubbles jumbling all around inside the glass. A dark red almost a brown in color. Coffee, nut to the nose and a bit of something I can’t put my finger on.
I was expecting a little more although it was tasty.
