Commercial Description:
A double bock beer that has what it takes. Not just for lovers of strong beer. With a malty aroma and great taste, our Korbinian is a true beer speciality. It goes well with smoked meat and fish as well as wild roasts and fowl.

Big, dark brown pour with tan filmy head. Caramelly aroma with notes of tobacco, toffee and roasted malts. Flavor is mostly roasted malt, toffee, caramel, some coffee notes, some fruit, a little weird finish. A hearty, nice mouthfeel. Good, but not great.

This opaque brown ale poured with a fizzy beige head that bubble away. There is a treacle aroma and a hearty roasted malt flavor with a raisin finish.

Pours cola brown with tan head. Caramel and raisin aromas. Flavors of toasted malts, caramel and dark fruits. Medium to full body with minimal carbonation.

50cl bottle. Pours cloudy dark red-brown with a moderate tan head. Sweet woody fruity burnt caramel aromas. Taste is malty burnt molasses with fruity toffee undertones and a warming mildly spicy and alcoholic finish. Thick creamy mouthfeel. Very filling. One for a cold winter’s night. A fine example of the genre.

Pours a dark brown having a healthy looking light brown frothy/thick head. Aroma is very malty with notes of toffee, raisin, caramel, and hints of dark fruit. Flavor is rich and creamy with malt all around. Starts with hints of raisin then moves into a little caramel , toffee and molasses. Sweet and semi milky. A very good doppelbock.

Definite caramel and molasses aroma, maybe even a bit nutty. Dark sanguine appearance with a tan head. Flavor has some caramel, perhaps even taffy flavors mixed in with some ripe fruit, perhaps apple. Very creamy palate. Beautiful.

Smells sweet and carmely. Taste is malty, nutty and a little spicy. Mouthfeel is less carbonated than I expected but extremely smooth. This is a quality doppelbock.
