Bottle. Brown and poured with a small head. Nutty and malty with a pleasant aroma upon opening.Very easy to drink considering its fairly high strength. Nice.

Bottle. Pours a very deep dark brown with a nice frothy tan head that leaves good lacing. Sweet and malty aroma with caramel, dark fruit, chocolate, raisins and some nuttiness. Smooth and very rich flavor of sweet caramel malts, molasses, chocolate, raisins and brown sugar with a medium to full body and has a sweet dry roasty finish. Awesome brew

Wow, this is liquid bread crust- everything about it scream, smells, and even looks like a mouth of bread crust. This would go so well with pb&j it is not even funny. No seriously, I’m not laughing. Why are you? Stop Laughing! $2.99 per 500ml bottle at Gulf Liquors, Miami Beach

Bottle: Poured a deep Burgundy color bock with large dirty brown color head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of banana ester with some dry fruits notes. Taste is also dominated by some dark fruit taste with ester of banana and some sweet malt. Body is about average with some creamy notes and good carbonation with no distinguishable alcohol. Well done but it would have been even better to get a fresher bottle.

Great Doppel. Aromas of grilled oranges/lemons. Bitter roasted malts, plum and citrus on the palate.

500ml bottle from Trinity Liquors in Spring Hill, FL. Pours dark brown with a thin beige head. Aroma is licorice, raw honey, mollasses, and some malt. Flavor is mollasses, honey, and licorice. Bit of a nasty aftertaste. Sticky, medium to thick mouthfeel. This isnt bad...but I just dont think Im a fan of this style.

16.9 oz bottle, via EDA. Pours a nice dark chestnut brown body with a one inch frothy beige head that slowly settled to a thin film. The nose is sweet lightly roasted and toasted malts with a touch of nuttiness. Rather smooth flavor with just a little bit of residual sweetness, not enough to be sticky or under attenuated tasting. Light roast coffee, toasted malt, a bit of some plum like fruitiness on the back end. A little bit of noticeable alcohol and husky graininess on the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a fairly clean finish, moderate soft fizzy carbonation. Overall a pretty nice beer.

Color is a deep dark amber with good carbonation and a thin head. Aroma is a fruity roasted scent. Taste is roasted, sweet and smoky. Starting with a medium body it goes down easy with a sweet nip on the end. Finish comes on with some dried fruit ( raisin and prune ) then a roasted flavor with a touch of smoke and very easy bitterness. Overall this is a tasty brew with a nice balanced flavor.
