Van Dyck I’ll be Bock Doppelbock

Brewed by Van Dyck Fine Food and Brewery
Style: Doppelbock
Schenectady, New York USA

NIce beer. Poured very dark brown with no head. Aroma was faint, but roasty. Flavor is also very roasty, coffee, and caramel, some hops.

on tap-pours a light tan head with dark copper color. Aroma is dark fruit, sweet, dark malt, alcohol. Taste is a sharp, slight bitter tasate, not in standard doppelbocks. Syrupy, sweet, malt, very concentrated. The difference may be Mike’s German style signature, but I didn’t care for it.
