Commercial Description:
This smooth rich dark southern German dobblebock is an Indian Wells Brewing Co. favorite. This 10.8% beer is powerful, but VERY easy to drink! This beer is not for the timid. A few of them and you’ll feel like you’ve had a frontal lobotomy the next day. Consume with caution!

Bottle from whole foods, San Diego. Aroma is sweet malt, not very impressive in the nose. The beer is dark and sweet. Alcohol content is completely hidden. Its very thin, and like some have said, I can’t believe that the alcohol can be this high in a beer this thin. Drink it if you want an easy way to get hammered, otherwise leave it alone.

The beer Pours a dark brown and Smell pretty good. And the beer was given the 10.8%. But I think it’s more like 7.0% The beer is from wholefoods. Dark brown ale with almost no head. but on sale for $6.99.

(Vegas trip) I had to buy this one after seeing the name and label. Deep red brown with a thick brown head. Aroma is malt and smooth. Light bodied with light flavor as well, malty, and very drinkable. No hint of the high alcohol in the flavor. Very drinkable brew.

Bottle: Have tried a few brews from IWB, consistenly good solid beers! Lobotomy is another great examples of craftmanship. Completely agree "10.8% beer is powerful, but VERY easy to drink! "

Poured a murky brown color with a small off white head. Aroma was of dark dried fruits, some brown sugar and other malts. Flavor is much the same, kinda of bland, nothing really sticks out, but the label is right, it is extremely drinkable and hides the alcohol very well.
