Apr 15, 2009 The aroma is sweet and malty with alcohol, chocolate, and dark fruit. The appearance is red brown with a nice head. The flavor is astringent and the alcohol is not hidden at all but it does taste like the aroma. The palate is average for the style. The finish is soapy. Overall not the best that I have had.

Jul 8, 2006 [tap at Spuyten Duyvil] It’s nice to see this brewery is finally in the NY market, and this was quite a nice introduction - smooth, creamy and full-bodied - a nice, floral/spicy quality, coupled with a pleasant caramel/munich malt sweetness made this a pleasure to drink - welcome to NY Thomas Hooker!

Mar 8, 2008 Bottle. Reddish dark brown colour with a light light fizzy head. Aroma of fruitness and very little maltness. Flavour of malt, sweetness and very tasty of caramel and toffee. Ends up very unclassic

Mar 14, 2006 I may under-rate this one a bit because the Arctic Devil preceeded it. Dark, grainy aroma. Strong grain presesnce. Moderately sweet. A bit buzzy. Musty at times. Some off aromas. Would age well. Mellow, grassy, grainy.

Aug 27, 2005 Bottle: Chocolate brown, very dark, huge rocky light brown head, web like lacing. Slight sweet & sour nose, subtle breadiness, cereal, pale cocoa. Much more bready on the tongue, slight dark pitted fruit, and oddly enough, a sort of belgian yeast like quality. Mouthfeel is slightly airy, body is moderate. Soft hop finish, subtle sourness in the back, the breadiness has disipated for the most part. A real odd duck, its like a lager with ale yeast or something. Definitely not as heavy as other examples, which I like. But at the same time, it doesn’t seem all that lagerish, at least to me. Good albeit a little different. Thanks John!

Nov 8, 2004 Dark brown bodied with a foamy light brown head. Sweet and alcoholic aroma with notes of pilsener malt and toffee - lacks the fullness of the best German Doppelbocks! Flavor is sweet malty, brown sugary and grassy and is more like a brown ale than a doppelbock. Long sweet finish. Good taste but rather ordinary and way overrated imo.

May 24, 2007 Bottle shared with Hogtown Harry, biegaman, and blankboy, courtesy of beigaman. Aroma is quite mild - some roast. Dark brown, no head. Good taste - roast, sweetness, and some hops. Thin, a little sourness in finish. Only ok.
