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.

Flavorful, and good aroma. Creamy, with little aftertaste. Better then some other Leinenkugel beers. Drank it right out of the bottle, so didnt get too much of and apperence opinion.

Had a bottle of this at my friends house last night. Not as good as some Leinenkugels (aka the Red), but a good beer nonetheless.

I thought this beer is one of Leinendugels better ones. Nice aroma. Smooth creamy taste. The drawback is that is was a bit to watery

The one good thing that I can say about this beer is that it is drinkable, malty-ish in the nose and taste. Darker colour with very thin brown head that leaves good lacing on the glass. As for the taste there is some kind of stale maltness going on, i dunno.

Reddish-copper color. Has a thin, white-oh wait a second-it's gone. Sweet malty aroma. Heavy sweet malty flavor not matching its thin mouthfeel. I do like many sweet beers, but this one isn't great. No real standout flavors, needs some hop character. The Schell Doppelbock I had was much better. Aroma gets worse as it sits- a hint of an overdue diaper change in the background. An alright beer, and priced the same as all other Leinie's. But I won't buy again.

Ruby colored body with a fast fading tan head. Aroma had hints of a syrupy sweetness. Flavor was acceptable but not noteworthy. Not what one would expect of a doppelbock.

2003 Vintage, pours a deep garnet with a quickly disappearing off-white head and very little lace. The aroma is malty. The flavor is malty like a Doppelbock, but with some strange off flavors in the middle. The palate is medium rich. This is good for a Leinenkugel beer, but rather week for the style.
