Heater Allen Mediator Dopplebock

Commercial Description:
Dopplebock started out as a Lenten beer for the monks in Germany. During Lent they would forgo solid food and get all their sustenance from beer. Needless to say it was big beer with lots of unfermented dextrins. Once the public got a taste it became very popular. We call our beer Mediator because we think that a 22 ounce bottle is probably better shored than drunk alone. It’s rich and malty, with a few plum notes on the palate and the slightest roasted character in the finish. I think this would go really well with a number of cheeses. Availability of this beer is very limited - less than 50 cases bottled. (1.024 BG, 7.00%, 40 IBU, 19 SRM) Available only at the Brewery, Belmont Station, Market of Choice Terwilliger, and New Seasons Cedar Hills Crossing and Sellwood.
