Tap @ Gman. Deep dark brown in color with a nice fluffy off-white head. Malty chocolatety bready aroma. Toffee piney notes. Malty raisin hoppy flavor. Hoppy piney notes. Full bodied. Finish is sweet. Nice beer.

Aug 16, 2008 draft @ ginger. Poured dark but a disappointingly weak taste for a D-bock. Watery I thought. Sixpoint usually misses for me and this was no exception.

Aug 9, 2008 On draft @ Publick House, Brookline. Pours a nice ruby with decent dense eggshell white head. Nose is predictably smokey, with a good but not overpowering wooden note, leafy german hops, mild bitterness. Very quaffable, perhaps even a bit thin. Went very nicely with the smoked chicken and corn chowder.

Jul 31, 2008 On draft at the Blind Tiger. Pours a very dark amber with a medium sized white head. Aroma of smoky malt and meat. Taste is smoky with malts present and hints of beef jerky.

Jul 30, 2008 draft @ blind tiger - dark amber with off white head; mild hops and dry malts in the aromas, but they are mostly dominated by a chocolaty, malty backbone that was just intoxicating; drinks smooth and dry with the chocolaty sweetness coming out; leaning on the sweet side, but i thought this was terrific;

Jul 14, 2008 a different but altogeather fine brew indeed! mostly reflective of a doppelbock but i must say this version is full of intrigue. nice bright taste of hops which are crystal and pine in flavor and moderate in strength. looks like a doppel deep orange and brown with the berry like flavors pronounced and a respectful malt character that is quite above average. nice hop character adds to the mouthfeel i.e. carbonation. quite a normal doppel aroma yet hop guys will simply be enamored to this doppel....as i am.
