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.

Brown color with a nice sized, but quickly fading beige head. Thick, malty aroma with some nutty, dark fruit detectable. Taste has a nice sugary, bready sweetness with a bit of dark fruit, and smoky flavors. Seemed a tad thin and watery. Nice D-Bock thats true to style.

Clear dark mohogany pour with fair light tan head. Dark fruit aroma with caramel malt. Flavors of honey, raisin, malt, and plum. There is even some meatiness in there! Creamy medium body with a sweet malty finish. Fantastic doppelbock and a great label to boot!

50cl bottle from Willow Bend Liquors (Tampa, FL). Pours a dark brown to black with thick and frothy tan head. Aroma is sweet and malty with notes of candy sugar, molasses, brown sugar, dark ripe fruit. Flavor is also sweet and malty with notes of chocolate, ripe fruit, molasses, nuts and spice. Generally medium to full-bodied with a sweet and malty finish.

On tap at Papago. Pours clear dark brown with a thin tan head. The nose is caramel, dark fruit and roasted malt. The taste is dark fruit, cocoa, roasted nuts and toasted malt. Medium fairly creamy mouthfeel. Decent.

16.9 oz bottle-A dark brown body with a small tan head and an aroma of sweetness, malt, molasses, smoke, and fruity esthers. Taste of the same with malts, chocolate, caramel, and slight coffee coming out throughout this medium to full bodied brew. I’m not a big fan of this style but I tink this brew is very well made. Great beer.

Dark mahogany, aroma of molasses and caramel. A tad more syrupey than I’d like, not as well balanced as my favorite bocks, namely the Celebrator and Aventinus. The aftertaste is more malty than the initial flavour, and it lingers well on the tongue. I plan to rerate this winter in the doppelbock showdown.
