Oct 18, 2005 Draft, Great Decatur Beerfest. Ruddy brown pour. Sweet malty aroma, almost sugary sweet. More sweet caramel malty flavors, and some toastiness too. Not too bad, but maybe a bit too sweet for me for a doppelbock.

Oct 10, 2005 Reddish brown with virtually no head. Aromas of sweet toasted malt and a little rum soaked fruitcake. Flavors of sweet toffee malts and mincemeat pie. Very little balancing bitterness. Alcohol not very noticeable in mouth, bun can be felt on the way down. Pretty easy drinking for an 8.2 ABV beer. Better than expected.

Oct 6, 2005 Deep amber-brown. Smooth and thickish mouthfeel; becomes milkier as it warms. Notes of maple, molasses, caramel, and toasted bread. Moderately grassy bitterness, but not quite enough for the sweetness. Fruity alcohol. Not bad, but a little too sweet for me.

Sep 22, 2005 Bottle - not a lot of aroma, but what is there is very malty. An opaque medium brown body and a beige head. A lot of flavors going on here, but I’m having a bit of a hard time pinpointing them. I read some other ratings to look for help. I do get some of the dark fruits and it is very fry in the finish. Slight alcohol burn is present. Not a huge fan of this one.
