Jun 19, 2005 Dark amber, almost black in appearance. A fair amount of foamy white head that stays till the last drop. Smells of very sweet malts and some smoky burnt wood, possibly some vanilla and butterscotch. Tastes unlike any Doppelbock I have ever had. Lots of sweet sweet malts, and the oak aged’ness is defintely present. Medium bodied and somewhat syrupy sticky mouthfeel. EtOH isnt very evident. A good dessert beer perhaps.

May 25, 2005 Updated: May 27, 2005I was thrilled to find this available in Madison, WI. The body is a very dark brown with a little amber light showing through. The aroma is coffee and maple with chocolate. There are also fall leaves. The taste is light coffee with some sweet honey. The flavors are subtle. There is also some bourbon. A smooth and awesome dopplebock. Thanks for being my proofreader, Larry.

Apr 16, 2005 Clear and dark brown with little head. Very malty aroma with raisen and caramel and a bit of tartness. Big caramel malt juice flavor with some hints of chocolate and some chalkiness and bitterness in the finish. I don’t get any oak flavor but maybe some tannins. Complex and good but not as smooth as some I’ve had.
