| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 1, 2009 Deliciousness in a bottle. Smooth, malty and sweet. Pours out a translucent dark brown. Aroma is sweet, tons of maltiness, a little roastiness. Seems a lot less potent than it actually is, and there is zero alcohol presence. I need more of this esjaygee (1561), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 18, 2009 Dark brown with a medium tan head. Aroma of caramel, roasted malt, dough, toffee and nuts. Taste of roasted malt, toffee, nuts, brown sugar and mild alcohol. I didn’t get much of the chocolate or coffee listed in the product description but overall not a bad beer. Too bad they put this one on hiatus. GJF (509), Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 6, 2009 Very nice bock. Dark mahogony. Sweet aroma. Thick flavors with lots of caramel, nuts, molasses, and chocolate. Sweetness gets a little cloying as it goes on, but a well made bock. msante79 (837), Orland Hills, Illinois, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 6, 2009 12oz bottle from Woodman’s in Madison. Pours very dark reddish brown with tan head. Aroma is malty with brown sugar and dark fruits. Flavor is roasted and caramel malt with dark fruits, chocolate, spices and brown sugar. Flavor and palate are perfect. Realy good brew. Is there a style New Glarus doesn’t do well? jezmez68 (334), Chesterton, Indiana, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | May 22, 2009 This is an awesome example of the style. With an ABV of 7.3%, not sure if this should be a Doppel? Pretty close. It’s "big" in a sense that it ain’t Miller. Dark brown with some red hues. Sweet caramel and fruit notes coming through. nickd717 (1376), Palo Alto, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 18, 2009 Big beer? Eh, not really. Maybe I’ve been drinking too much Dogfish Head stuff. Still though, it’s damn good. Pours dark brown with reddish hues and a nice beige head. Roasty, malty aroma with dark fruit notes. Flavor is roasted malt, caramel malt, dark fruit, and slight chocolate. Palate smooth but a tiny bit watery and not quite as full as I’d like. Still though, great for the style. miketd (683), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
