redlight (1445), Winter Park, Florida, USA Aug 14, 2009 bottle. Fruity, chocolatey aromas. Pours dark amber with a thin white head. Very smooth, with hints of spice, very caramelly, rich malts and spicy hops. Not bad at all! Rciesla (3500), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Jul 29, 2009 Bottle. Pours a brown body with a tan head. Sweet malty caramel and sugar character, a bit of sticky lagered notes, bread y with some dark fruit facets. Decent brew. MaltOMeal (642), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA Jul 20, 2009 bottle shared at July BA tasting. Pours a dark brown with tan bubbles at edge, in lieu of head. Nose is of brown sugar, molasses and toffee. Not as strong a nose as I would have liked. Taste is bready with brown sugar and molasses. Mouthfeel is sticky sweet. Bit too sweet for my tastes.

Aroma of caramel, molasses, dough, toffee and dark fruit. A little weak on the taste department with toffee, nuts, alcohol and sugar. Thin, sticky and wet, this one runs the gambit of adjectives as it finishes up dry and sweet. shigadeyo (2210), Harrison, Ohio, USA Jul 1, 2009 5/07/2009: Sprecher Dopple Bock is fruity and sweet with hints of darker, European-like malts. It also has a slight roastiness in the flavor with a chocolate finish. This beer is mahogany brown in appearance with a thin, dissipating beige head and swirling carbonation. Its medium to medium-full body is smooth on the palate and the alcohol is hidden. It improves more as it warms.
