Jun 27, 2008 This dark brown ale poured with a thin tan head. The flavor is not as rich as the better doppelbocks, but there is a decent caramel malt base with some fruit notes and, surprisingly, no hint of alcohol.

Jun 15, 2008 Bottle. Dark mahogany color with a fizzy tan head that didn’t last long. Aroma of mild dark fruit and roasted caramel. Biting, fizzy carbonation. Body starts medium but thins. Flavor is mostly darkly roasted caramel, but there seems to be lighter fruit notes as well. Finishes surprisingly dry. It’s not dry, dry, but it sure is not sticky. Leaves an impression of soil in the mouth - not necessarily a bad thing. The heat was not really noticeable until it was pretty well down the gullet. Certainly easy to quaff. Danger, Will Robinson.

May 27, 2008 bottle thanks to riversideak. Thanks man! Pours brownish red with a thin white head. Flavor is chocolate, roasted malts, and wheat. Some earth and a bit of sweet caramel. Finishes thick, not too boozy.

Apr 26, 2008 A pretty nice beer. Very smooth going down. Pours nice and dark brown but not too think. A thin lacey head. A very caramel aroma and taste and overall pretty sweet for a bock. Worth a try.
