Feb 26, 2005 bottle. Pours a a red orange color with a thin white head. Rich malty smells with definate hops in the aftertaste. The bitter finish gives the beer its character. Sweet grassy flavor. Overall good beer. I’d like to see a better flavor in the finish.

Feb 9, 2005 On tap @ MacGregors in Henrietta. I was expecting a winter warmer style beer, but instead I was treated to a nice malty scotch ale. The description says warming character but I didn’t experience that. The flavor was nicely malty and sweet with a very smooth full palate. Easy to drink and enjoyable.

Jan 25, 2005 Poured a dark amber color with a medium sized, creamy, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet malts, rather dull. Taste was sweet caramel maltiness, very light hops. The name suggests a doppelbock... tis not.

Jan 12, 2005 Not as good as I expected. Pours a clear, copper/amber color with a thin short lasting off-white head. Decent caramel, toasty malts, skunky aroma. Very thin mouthfeel. Stale malty flavor. Decent roasted taste with some sweet caramel flavor. Not bad. Didn’t really do much for me.
