Jul 2, 2009 12 oz, bb Dec 2, 09. Clear chestnut with reddish highlights and a small spit of foam. Aromas of chocolate, caramel, grilled corn and light smoky wood. Big front flavors of dark fruit, chocolate and caramel are barely checked by some earthy spiciness, a touch of smoky whiskey and woody hops. Medium body is tingly and finishes dry enough. Nice one.

Mar 18, 2009 Pours a really nice looking ruby red color with a thin off white head. Aroma is malt and sawdust, something very dry in there. Flavor is underwhelming to say the least. A little sweet, a little roast malt but overall, there’s not much happening here. Definitely better doppelbocks to be found.
