Jul 23, 2006 Bottle at RBSG 2006. Rusted bronze. Malty and chocolaty nose. Light caramel and fruit as well. Taste is malty, cocoa-ish and sweet. Lots of caramel in this. Body is medium with mild carbonation. Finishes just as sweet with more cocoa, light nuttiness and chocolate coming through.

Jul 17, 2006 Courtesy of Sledge Jr, RBSG 06. Light mouthfeel. Candy sugar flavors dominate, alongside maple sugar - yet it’s lacking some very necessary concentration. Quite light.

Jul 16, 2006 Caramel colored clear body with a small vanishing light tan head. Caramel syrupy aroma. Sweet throughout with caramel being dominant. Needs more ummpphh to get it going. It just kind of sits there and bores me.

May 24, 2006 From a 22oz. brown bomber bottle with a celebratory label, bottled in 2005.
Made a decent appearance, poured a lightly hazy garnet, with a foamy pale tannish head that quickly settled into a thin lacing, moderate carbonation.
Had a roasted and caramelized malty nose with a light fruitiness, figs mainly.
A semi-crisp, slick and smooth medium bodied mouth feel, good drinkability.
Fig fruity and caramelized malty taste with a little roastiness, the Millstream yeastiness, a toffeeness emerges in the middle and a dryish roasted and caramel malty finish.
I know a lot of people, at least around here, take pot shoots at Millstream, but I think they are a decent brewery, the last in Iowa, and this was a decent doppelbock, congratulations on twenty years.

Apr 24, 2006 Pours a nice clear medium to deep amber with a thin head but fades in my glass. Sweet caramel malts in the nose, along with some fruity esters, toasted malts, munich etc. Flavor was skewed more to a fruity sweetness and crystal malts rather than a big thick toasted munich sweetness. Finished a bit slick but overall this was pretty good.

Apr 23, 2006 Poured a clear amber color with a red hue and thin off-white creamy head. Aroma of raisins and plums. Swwet and malty. The flavor was on the dull side. Sweet and malty with some dark fruit but really just blah. Some bitterness on the finish.
