| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 27, 2007 Pours hazy amber, nut brown head. Lace hangs around a bit.
Smells of dark fruit ( cherry? ) and a bit grassy.
Taste, at first, wow. Has malt, fruit, a a bit of a sour taste. Even taste a nice shot of hop spice to it.
Mouthfeel is great, finish is clean with a shot of ABV being apparent.
This, and the 2007 AB Brewmasters Private Reserve are the best domestic dopples I have yet to have, with this being my favorite beermeashiner (8), USA does not count | 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 26, 2007 Bottle: Caramely and rich. Can taste the alcohol but hidden better than most Doppels. joverton85 (80), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 21, 2007 dissapointed in this beer. maybe one of the worse doppelbocks i have had. very thin and weak color define the appearance with small quickly fading head. this was like a doppelbock light to me, no flavor. i’m very suprised by the alcohol content. thats the up side if you bought a 6-pack, at least you get drunkk.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 29, 2007 12 oz. bottle that poured a caramel color with minimal white head. Aroma was minmal as well. Smelled faintly of caramel. Mouthfeel was moderately heavy. As with most doppelbocks I’ve had so far, this is a very sweet beer. Taste was of caramel and maybe some toffee and chocolate. Like a liquid Milky Way bar. Alcohol is well hidden. At 8.2% that could be dangerous. I detected no sign of the Hallertau hops that the commercial description speaks of. A nice sweet tasty brew.
