Jan 23, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear brown with a small white head. Aroma of coffee and roasted malt. Flavor of coffee grounds, smooth sweet malt, and some bitterness in the finish. Pretty good (although it lacks the typical bready/doughy malts of a doppelbock).

Jan 20, 2009 bottle, big thanks to Tronraner. This is the single best label for a doppelbock ever. However, even given the awesomeness of the name and picture, I approach this beer with apprehension given my disdain for the style. The pour is typical for the style, kind of dark and fairly see-through. The aroma is only slightly vegetal, and not off putting. Toast and light spices are noted. The flavor is what I feared, but it is not bad at all. Not a lot of butter or corn is present. I get actually a pleasant almost roasty quality. The finish is herbal without being bitter. This is pretty good actually.

Jan 20, 2009 12 oz bottle, thanks to douglas88. Pours reddish mahogany with whitish head. The aroma is leaves, toast, a little bit of diacetyl, a hint of caramel. The flavor is mild caramel with some burnt-leaves toastiness. There is a mellow earthy hop profile that fades a little toward the finish. There is a touch of garlic to the aftertaste that makes it a little weird, but other than that, not too bad.
