12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy amber with a frothy white head that quickly goes to a thin film that leaves a little lacing.
The aroma is sweet caramel and toffee with some dark fruit and a little alcohol.
The flavor is sweet caramel and toffee and nuts with a little fruit leading to a lightly grassy bitterness in the finish. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.
Overall, a good example of a doppelbock. A little too much on the sweet side for me.

Dec 9, 2009 Lot’s of warm, dark roasted flavours in this one, from nose to mouth. Burnt chocolate, mexican coffee beans, beef stew and simmering mild cider. Palate is smooth and sweet with a nice warm caramel and malt finish. Nothing over the top at all.

Dec 7, 2009 Bottle thanks to Gregg. Pours a nice dark brown with a thin tan head. A little bit of yeast floats atop the head. Aroma is roasted malts and a bit of chocolate. Notes of dark fruits, allspice, and burnt malts come out as well. On the palate, it is a little sweet and a bit chewy. The finish is a tad bit dry. I was really impressed with this beer and hope to have some again.
