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

Poured a medium murky brown with a quick setting off white head. Malty aroma, slightly floral as well. Very complex flavor, carmel and coffee notes but also brown sugar and nuts. Slightly malty as well. Extremely complex flavor which makes this a refreshing addition to the otherwise pedestrian Tommy Knocker line.

#900 It has Butt in the name.. haha... Decent bock. Nice flavor, not has heavy as some of the german bocks i’ve had. Very drinkable and still has a decent kick.

Pours deep copper in color with faint carbonation and a khaki head that holds as a thin skin. Alcohol precedes stale caramel malt in aroma with a touch of maple syrup, walnuts and latent fruitiness. Sweet and sharp flavor with dominant malts, a little sticky in the mouth. Finish is dry with a hint of sourness and lingering alcohol.

Purchased at Walt’s Foods, Tinley Park, IL 60477

Nice pour of a light cola color some head and lacing. Nice caramel aroma that atches the flavor that one expects from a Doppelbock. I also like the fact the sell in variety si packs.

Carmel brown color with a moderate head and light lacing. Big aroma of malt and sweet caramel. Flavor is quite sweet, tones of carmel with quite a lot of maltieness. Not particulary complex and too sweet, but still prety good.

I actually enjoyed this doppelbock relative to others’ takes on it. Poured a very beautiful pour into my tulip glass, perfectly looking off-white to tannish head on top of an orange-brown body, great lacing the whole way down, gentle rings. The aroma was a little bit of bubblegum, some caramel, some dark fruits, and a touch of grass. Flavor picked up nuts, bread, cookie dough, light chocolate, and reinforcing caramel w/ a distinct fruitiness. Alcohol wasn’t hot at all in this sample, although one could accuse it of being too sweet. The finish was lightly bittered, though, keeping this from being cloying or too sweet for sure. A nice job at a doppelbock, imo.

Bottled. MIld malts on nose, heavy dry carmel malt on flavor. Solid, but too mild in flavor.
