Commercial Description:
Leinenkugel's is pleased to bring back Leinenkugel's Big Butt Doppelbock into its limited-release portfolio. The name "Big Butt" comes from the image of two goats butting heads that you see on the label. Bock means billy goat in German and Leinenkugel's Big Butt Doppelbock's name and label pokes fun at the goat's springtime mating ritual. The result is a malty, rich, full-bodied bock beer brewed with two-and six-row pale and specialty malts and two specialty hops. Like all Leinie's beers, Big Butt Doppelbock is handcrafted one batch at a time in our historic Chippewa Falls brewery.

A bit too sweet for me, not too much of a doppelbock flavor, not a bad beer, but not too much of a dopplebock. I’d drink it again, but I wouldn’t seek it out. Thanks to Duane for this one!

Dark drown pour with a big tan head. Not much carbonation which leads to a smooth texture on your palate. Very malty aroma with a dark fruityness coming through. Flavor is sweet with a roasted and fruity flavor. I thought the alcohol was well hidden for a d-bock, but the 5.79% explains it.

Bottle. Not too shabby. Very dark brownish red color. Very malty and tasty. Not sure this is a dopple-bock, but it’s good. Strong chocolaty toffee flavor.

Thanks to Duane. This is my last beer from Duane, and they have all been very good. This one pours a deep, vibrant ruby color with a medium, creamy white head. Aroma of malt, toffee, plum, and prunes. Tastes very malty, with the aforementioned dark fruits and a slight, tart cherry finish. Delicious. Not super dense or complex like many doppelbocks, but very good nonetheless.

Been waiting to try this since hearing of it when I joined Ratebeer. Not really a pure doppelbock. Nonetheless, it’s a nice darker beer, and for only $6.

This was more of a red colour, with a medium sized head that dissapeard quickly. Not much of an aroma. The taste was mostly malt with a suprising amount of hops for the style. It really didn’t remind me of a dopplebock at all. Too thin.

Dark ruby with a frothy head fades quickly though. Sweet malt aroma. Nutty flavor with hints of caramel. A little watery for the style.
