Pours a very dark brown color that will still allow some light through with a tan head. Smells of dough, caramel, and dark fruit. Rich malty presence tastes of brown sugar, caramel, and dough. Quite yummy even on a hot day.

Dar brown in color with a nice head. Caramel malt dominates both he aroma and flavor. Roasted malts, dough, and a little nutty. Smooth body. A bit too sweet but still a very good beer.

Pours very dark brownish read with a tan head. Smells malty and rich. Rich flavor with lots of malt and a bit bitter. Not as sweet as many of this style of beer that I have had. Feels very silky in the mouth.

Pours deep mahogany, almost red, with light tan head. Nose is tough to discern in my wide mouthed German stein but is bready, roasty, and rich. On the palate is a smooth medley of roasty malts, brown bread, some brown sugar and/or caramel too. All of this glides around elegantly with a smooth, medium body. Very sexy beer. Finish is lightly sweet with some alcohol. Warming.

Bottle Pours a dark brown that lets a fair bit of light through around the edges. There is enough head that I would guess that I’ve only got 8 ounces or so in my pint glass. Aromas are of roasted malt, nuts and damp earth. Flavor, mouthfeel and palate are all very lovely except for a slight bit of cloying sweetness that I detect from time to time... not every sip, but it’s there enough to get a little annoying. Still, very nice drink.

Pint bottle- poured out a beautiful mahogany brown-amber with a dark khaki head. Aroma was malty with a coffee back. Taste was excellent, toasty malt and nuts with a sweet finish. Palate was good for a Doppelbock, very smooth. Would be great with a hearty beef dinner. Liked it a lot.

Clear amber beer with a small off-white head. Malty aroma with toffee, brown sugar and molasses. Dry but rich malty flavour, tasty and drinkable for the style.
