Iron Hill Triple Bock

Formerly brewed at Iron Hill Phoenixville
Style: Doppelbock
Phoenixville, Pennsylvania USA

Bottle thanks to pantanap! Crazy label, I think there needs to be a seperate non cumulative rating for labels, I’d give that one a 2. Pours dark brown with no head. Yeast, chocolate malt, fruit, and spice aromas that are quite inviting. Full rich flavors of chocolate, dark fruit, dough, and all around sweet. The sweetness doesn’t overbear it, its still easy to drink and enjoyable to drink. Thanks Kan!

Thanks Dim I poured this bottle into my Pilsener glass it produced a two finger tan head, on top of a reddish brown body. The head trails off to a thin lace. Aromas of sweet fruit are the first thing that hit me. Then I get some molasses and grapes Wow this is not what I expected I really like it. The flavors follow the nose but with some alcohol burn to it as well. This thing is going to be a sipper I can tell. It is sweet like a desert wine. With its dark fruit qualities as well. It has a medium feel to it in the mouth with nice carbonation to it as well Like I said this is a sipper and the small bottle is enough for one sitting. An interesting brews my first from the brewer and I know it won’t be my last

the 3d glasses rule my world. pours a lot lighter than I thought it would, I was thinking it would be thick like engine oil but it was much more fizzy, and more lively with hues of brown and amber. nose was rasberries, caramel, sour vinous notes, a malty masterpiece. taste was sticky, with caramel, and rasberries again. lots of bready flavours involved. was gorgeous. i wish my tastebuds werent destroyed from dinner so i could fully enjoy this masterpiece. Retasted it with better tastebuds, what my father claims was the last bottle of the stuff in stores. Much better than I remembered. Perfect mouthfeel. a beautiful beer.

bottle thanks to Kan! pours amber with no head. nose of caramel, doughy malts, red wine. flavors of caramel, red fruit, sweet currants. tasty brew, very clean and smooth finish with the alc in check. awesome stuff.

Bottle, via whaleman. Pours a dark brown body with a small beige head that completely vanished. Very viscous and heavy looking in the glass. The nose is huge dark fruits of plum and raisins with lots of caramel, molasses, moderate alcohol, and a bit of coffee. The flavor is just as rich and deep as the aroma. Full on dessert sweetness, dark fruits and deep heavy caramel. A bit of a light smoky note on the finish with some alcohol, but the alcohol really works nicely with this one. The mouthfeel is thick and viscous, but I really wouldn’t really call it sticky at all. This beer was just a perfect match to our dessert that night. This is probably one of the best Iron Hill beers that I’ve had to date. I really need to track down some more of this!

13oz bottle....pours a dark caramel thrown with an nono-existent head.... sweet caramel, banana, and alcohol phenols....flavors of sweet and heavy caramel malt and dark fruit. med carbonation which is of to be expected. for 13% it holds up well.

13 oz bottle, corked and caged, courtesy of eaglefan538. This is the second beer I have had this year that came with 3D glasses, strange trend. Opens with a decent pop. Pour is blueish red, crap forgot to take the 3D glasses off. Pour is hazed ruby-mahogany black with nice settling and a 1/2 inch tan beige head. Aroma of sweet caramel, cooking molasses and bright sweet dried fruit - raisins or craisins even. Some soy. Alcohol heat is also present. Quite a bit of variety in the nose, though overly aggressive. Taste is the bright dried fruit, dates and raisins this time around. Sooner after the fruit is the soy, brown sugar and molasses. Near the end is a blast of alcohol heat. The after taste burned quite a bit. Palate is syrupy, sticky, actually a bit on the thin side. As mentioned previously, a bunch of in your face heat. Wow, this is a very aggressive beer. I wonder what I did to offend it? Thanks for sending this my way Brian, fun one to try.

Bottle 37 cl. Courtesy of Miver. Pours hazy and opaque orangey brown with a beige head. Aroma of burned caramel and alcohol. Quite full-bodied, roasted maltiness and caramel with a distinct warming alcohol in the finish. 010209
