| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 30, 2009 500ml bottle bought at the Bier Spezialität Laden in Berlin. Ruby coloured body, deep and clear. Shining surface. Firm malty smell with a touch of dark fruits. Pleasant flavour of plums, leafy hops and nutty malts. Tart dark fruits to the finish. Rather vinous palate (shared with Richard at a hotel room in Berlin, 21.11.2009) pkbites (340), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 25, 2009 Brownish red pour with a creamy beige head that dies too quickly. Nose of caramel, bakery, raisins, and qwerty. A warm, nutty, malty sensation embraces the palate up into the nostrils, Nutty finish, but very weak hops. A tad of spice and pepper in the finish, but not overwhelmingly so. Overall not a bad bock at all. Paid $2.99 for a pint at the liquor store @ 108th street & Oklahoma in West Allis, Wisconsin.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 27, 2009 Sampled at 2009 WIU Performing Arts Society Beerfest. Semi-cloudy two-tone brownish plum red with a very small white head. Very toasty/roasty malt aroma, with some ripened fruit (dates and raisins) and honey roasted peanuts. Definitely a fruitcake feel to the nose with the hints of bready yeast and grains. Flavor has a lot of raisin, and finish is rather grainy (wheat, straw). More complex as you enjoy it as the ripened fruit notes being to pop. Really nice. Ryan82SM (271), Louisville, Kentucky, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 23, 2009 Malty, toffee aroma with chocolate. Dark brown with tan head. Toffee, caramel, chocolate and coffee flavors. Palate is rich and creamy. Molto Delicioso! NJJereme (272), Saint Petersburg, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 11, 2009 Bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a nice, fairly large fluffy tan head. Aromas of malts, chocolate, and a little bit of coffee. Has a fairly creamy mouth feel, definitely can feel an alcoholic burn as it goes down. Medium to heavily bodied. Good. mcdav2154 (297), Germany
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 18, 2009 Dark reddish mohogany color with a medium tan head that disappears quickly. No lacing. Grainy malty smell with dark fruits. Taste is sweet malt and caramel. Aftertaste is like eating a box of raisins which leaves a sticky sweet mouthfeel. Doppelbocks in my opinion are usually oversweet and not enough hop bite. This is no different but still a pretty good beer.
