Commercial Description:
This award winning doppelbock (8.2% alcohol by volume) lager is brewed with a generous supply of Munich, carapils, caramel and chocolate malts and is fermented with Bavarian lager yeast. The resulting caramel sweetness and rich mouthfeel are complimented by the mild bittering of German Hallertau hops. 1997 Great American Beer Festival Silver Medal Winner

This is part of a beer club. Had only one bottle but was decent for the price. Poured great and had a nice finish. Would do again.

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.

I don’t know about most people. But that is probably the sweetest dopplebock I have ever drank... Good, but almost distractingly sweet.

A hazy, caramel coloring. The alcohol steps out and interferes with the taste - that of sticky sweet molasses. A nice flavor, it just could be a little smoother.

12 oz. bottle- nice caramel smell when cracked open, poured dark amber color. Hit the mouth easy and with a body at first like a bock, but moderate alcohol after finish. Just another rating, don’t plan on trying again.

12 oz. bottle from lb4lb. Clear copper body with a medium off white head that subsides quickly. Sweet caramel aroma, no hop based aromas to speak of. Mediu/full body with a pleasing richness, a bit sticky on the palate. As in the aroma, he sweet caramel dominates, but there is a faint spicy bitterness at the end to stem the tide. Still finishes sweet, but not out of character for a Doppelbock.

A deep reddish brown color with a thin head. This had citrus and swet aroma and flavors all throughout the beer. Liked the Munich malts used and the yeast was very sweet. A reat doppel to drink.

355 ml, bbe Nov 07. Dark copper-ruby with a small, lasting cap of foam. Nose is chocolate and a root beer-like spiciness. Flavor is caramel, slight corn, spicy cola and bitterish herbs, with some alcohol flavor noticeable at the end. Fairly smooth, medium-bodied, with a dry and alcohol-warm finish. Nice winter warmer.
