Jan 7, 2009 16oz bottle. Deep, dark, red brown color with no real head. Sweet malty aroma, touch of alcohol in it. Rich, sweet, and creamy, with only an inkling of hops in the initial mouthfeel. Sweet chocolate malt aftertaste. Develops some decent Bocky yeast tastes as it warms. Nothing exceptional, but does have redeemable qualities.

Dec 17, 2008 Clear caramel brown color, no head. General sweet nose, slight dark fruits. Clean taste, a bit on the sweeter side even for a dopplebock, malts not real spicy. Clean finish. Just ok.

Dec 1, 2008 12 oz. Translucent chestnut with a tight quarter inch of cream that leaves some soapy frost behind. Mild aroma of cocoa, coffee and roasted walnut. Flavors are similar but stronger, with some lightly tart berry and molasses for contrast to the robust roast flavors. Medium-heavy body is smooth but tingly, and finishes dry with roastiness and light alcohol.

Oct 21, 2008 Shared by a local. Poured a deep brown color with a moderate beige head that faded to a ring. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, some apple and red grape, and a bit of yeast. Smooth, lightly sweet entry with some soft fruity undertones (red grape) leading into a nice caramel maltiness with a light apple flavor and a light yeastiness on the finish. Moderate carbonation, smooth on the palate. A bit basic, but not bad.

Oct 19, 2008 Very dark burgundy color, with a collar of light tan foam. Wort-like nose, with some nice malt elements of caramel and raisins, butterscotch and honey. Flavor is tremendously lacking and poorly flavored, doesn’t have the intensity I would like. Not extracted well.
