Commercial Description:
Blue goat is a tribute to the perseverance and billy goat-toughness of those charged with the mission of bringing beer to the people. Many charismatic, resourceful people and countless pieces of quirky equipment have endured endless challenges to exceed humble expectations. The grit and stubborn determination of these "Blue Goats" are integral to all that is craft brewing and New Holland. Join us in raising a glass to the Blue Goats of our industry. Share a glass or two with a brewery worker and, with any luck, they'll share a couple of priceless stories about the resilience of craft brewers and their breweries. Blue Goat Doppelbock is chestnut in color with a nutty mlat profile from it's signature Munich malt. A muted hop presence and smooth caramelized body culminate in a clean, dry finish. 18 degrees plato.

From bottle. Part of a Dayton Beer Tasting July event. Paired with Beer Brine Pork Medallions. Poured medium brown with a quick dissolving head. Aroma of sweet malt. Flavors include raisins and caramel. Decent.

Easy drinking dopple bock, chocolatey and smooth, but a little weak. It is a good every day drinking beer, but not one of my favorites.

Nice dopplebock - easy to drink - nothing overly special that seperates it from other dopples. Overally pretty good beer

Hazy mahogany pour, with a faint ring of lace - up front, the nose is a little oxidized and tart, but underneath there are some fairly complex notes of cherry, raisin, fig, chocolate, and caramel - creamy, but slightly thin in body for the style - sweet at first, with chocolate and caramelized sugar - this makes way for some nutty character, followed by cherry and raisin fruitiness - starts to dry out in the finish, and oxidation is apparent, generating a kind of coppery quality that makes the experience less enjoyable - not bad, but not particularly good either.

Chestnut brown with a fleeting head. Decent smell is a bit of smoked, roasted malts with black licorice. medium body. Nice doppelbock flavors of sweet pumpernickel bread with caraway seeds. Malty grainy bock beer here.

Bottle. A light hazy amber beer with a beige head. The aroma is of caramel malt, light rye bread, the taste is sweet caramel malt, rye bread and a bit dusty. Medium body with a sweet light sour finish.
