Bottled in 2006, flip top exploded off the bottle and breaded malt filled the room. Pours dark dark brown, almost black with a huge off-white rocky head. Oh, this is good, sweet, rich and creamy. No oxidation, This brew is up there with celebrator. Toffee, chocolate, and roasted malts dominate. Very smooth and drinkable the alcohol is well hidden. Top of the line.

Dec 18, 2009 Tap @ Monster B’s, Clear dark brown body. Sweet malt overload. Too sugary, I’m not a big fan of doppelbocks to begin with.

Dec 10, 2009 This is a very nice dopplebock. This has been aged for about three years. A very sweet aroma come through, though it is somewhat sour too. On the taste it is apparent. The strawberries and raspberries show through very well, in addition to some yeasty sourness. It is quite interesing and is also able to maintain its medium body after this much aging.

Dec 2, 2009 Bottle. Pours a brune body with a tan head. Chocolate and berry notes, raspberries and some light apple notes, with a caramel sweetness, light smoke notes. Chewy body with a mild fruit etoh warming. Surely a pinnacle doppelbock.

Nov 30, 2009 Bomber - sampled with mitchgt. From my notes: black pour with a finger of pillowy khaki head. Slightly muted aroma of dark fruits, nuts and roasted malts. earthy sourness to it. comes off as more of a belgian than doppelbock. creamy medium texture. milk shake vibe to it. light hop bitterness comes through in the finish. great beer - though very different than what I have as a typical doppelbock.

Nov 5, 2009 Bottle thanks to Cletus. Pours a very dark brown with a small tan head. The aroma hits you as you pour. Booze, malts and hints of dark chocolate,dark fruit ,and a tidbit of licorice. Flavor was wonderful, heavy roasted malt to start that fades into a nutty, bready, grainy finish with the dark fruits. Very smooth transition, refreshing textured finish. This is a very good Doppelbock. It is quite complex, full flavored, and definitely deserves its spot in the list of top Doppelbocks
