| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 6, 2009 Bottle. Toffee sweet nose for aroma. Dark amber body with beige head and some lacing. Flavor start out in sweet dopplebock fashion with a strong bitter bite. Bitter subsides and a caramel toffee sweet candy flavor is there. Rather thin brew and a bit too sweet for me.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 5, 2009 12 oz bottle from blindeyedbetty, my brew babe extraordinaire. Clear coppery amber with a light tan head. Nose is sweet nuts and earth, something smoky and a dash of toffee. Very deep nutty flavors, caramel and a mild hint of chocolate. Wisps of smoke. Somewhere in there , something is off, but I can’t put a finger on it. Really shows in the finish, like a spoiled chestnut. Really nice beige lace. I can’t decide to like or hate this puppy. daknole (2942), Plantation, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 3, 2009 Bottle. Amber pour. Aroma is very sweet with notes of caramel, sark fruits and spices. Flavor isnt what I expected to be honest. Sweet and malty with a heavy dose of caramel. Not bad, but not what it could of been. Carl99Fan (186), Suwanee, Georgia, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 27, 2008 I love a good doppelbock, but this wasn’t one. Very disappointed as I don’t think I’ve ever had an ’average’ doppelbock before. ’Enjoyed’ at Squatters in Salt Lake City. pantani (1902), Salinas, California, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 25, 2008 This is the new Wasatch beer. It has replaced the Wasatch Pale Ale, I am a little bummed about that, but...
Pours a super clean/clear dark golden brownish color, nice carbonation, small fizzy off-white head, very minimal sticky lacing. The nose is very malty, slight vanilla/sweetness, some spices, and lots of caramel. The taste is malty, slightly sweet at first sip, spicy, and lots of caramel. The alcohol is hidden very very well, just a slight warming effect. Medium body. Drinkable, this is a pretty tasty brew, it’s no where near a Celebrator, but it is nice, very drinkable. Also, I would consider this brew, more of an hyped-up amber ale.

Aroma of roasty malt, toffee, brown sugar and ripe fruit. Nice flavor of smooth sweet malt, toasted nuts brown sugar and a touch of fruit. A touch watery on the palate, but nicely carbonated. A little alcohol and spice linger on the finish. A very nice brew. IrishBoy (2713), Bakersfield, California, USA
