Two Brothers Incinerator Blonde Doppelbock

Brewed by Two Brothers Brewing Company
Style: Doppelbock
Warrenville, Illinois USA

This bottled brew poured a medium sized head of foamy frothy topped mostly lasting fine to large sized sized bubbles that left behind a transparent carbonated caramel orange brown colored body and a fair lacing. The aroma was nice with caramel malty notes. The mouth feel was vinous with a strong malt bite and a strong caramel flavor in its lingering mildly vinous aftertaste. Over all it was a very good brew that was a bit too vinous and tended to obscure the flavor a tad.

22oz bomber received ina trade with Dough77 - Thanks Tim! - bright amber with a short offwhite head. Aroma is of sweet caramel malts, a touch of butterscotch, and some toffee and bread notes. Flavor is sweet caramel, toffee, some yeast, and just a touch of spice on the finish. Palate is medium bodied and pretty easy drinking for a doppel. Not a trase of the alcohol and very malty and decadent. Pretty nice stuff. Probably my favorite Two Brothers brew yet.. Smooth brew!

Tastes like a maibock to me, and a very tasty one at that - kind of a musty, earthy aroma, with caramel malt, bright fruity esters, a hint of tartness - a little spicy both up front and on the back end - lots of strawberry, cherry and other light berry flavors - perhaps a little overly sweet, sticky caramel flavor, but this is easy to overlook - the hops and spice do a decent job of balancing it out near the end - Two Brothers beers never get the credit they deserve.

Bomber bottle and served in my La Chouffe glassware: Pours a beautiful coppery hue topped by a fading white head and some lace. The aroma has notes of bready and caramel malting, hint of cobweb yeast esters, a note of apple, and pepper.

The taste starts sweet but not over-the-top. A nice dose of fruit and some bitters shows up as well before leading to a sublime spicy finish. Well put together for the style. The feel is lush and medium to full bodied with just a nip of alcohol to cleanse the palate.

Better than average doppel, I really enjoyed it. Nicely done Two Brothers.

Bottle. Poured a small ivory head that mostly diminished, minimal lacing and carbonation, transparent, and an orange hue. Nose was sweet malt with some spicy notes. Flavor was sweet malt, some caramel and light hops. Smooth palate. Medium body.

Red orange with a small head on top. Peppery start, then yeasty with a nice fruity finish. Mellow as a kitten - well it is mellow- round and very well balanced!

Sweet syrup nose, pale copper color, fizzy head. Sweet honey malt, some berry, spicy end. (Didn’t really get the peppercorns, but there was a little spicy-ness). Medium body, great balance. Very good indeed.

(22 oz. bottle from <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/massachusetts/w target=blank>Julio’s Liquors) This pours a burnt orange with a thin off-white head. Pleasant aroma of black pepper. Scant lacing. Mouthfeel smooth, a bit syrupy. This one is not your typical doppelbock. Has a moderate amount of malt sweetness but flavor is mostly the black pepper particularly in finish. The pepper does not overpower at all however. Peppery aftertaste. This was actually quite enjoyable if not really to style. Not much complexity at all but real easy to drink with a nice ABV kick. Would go well with a good steak or burger I’d venture.
