Aug 31, 2001 Behind a slightly acrid nose lies a beautiful, slightly malty beer with hints of fruit and caramel. There was a slight hint of a metallic taste in the first sip, but that quickly dissipated. Left practically no aftertaste, surprisingly for such a strong beer.

Sep 22, 2001 Tastes like 80% bock, 20% wheat. This is listed as a weizenbock, however the style on this site seems much more appropriate. Strong roasted caramel and plum aroma, with heavy plums, figs, prunes, and dates flavors and a fruity banana/apple finish. Develops a scotch-ale character as it warms, making this a unique, albeit slightly underachieving brew from my favorite brewery.

Feb 3, 2004 Oddly refreshing for a doppelback. Tastes classically German, malty and roasty. One of the better doppels that I have tried.

May 15, 2005 Poured a clear dark brown with an off-white head. Aroma and flavors are malty, sugary, sweet, with some fig and raisin fruitiness. Bitter finish baloances out the sweetness.

Jun 25, 2003 Frothy beige head that diminishes quickly. I am bad with color, but this one is cola dark.Aroma of caramel and roastiness. Flavor of caramel and malt and finishes sweet with slight bitterness. Overall a very malty sweet and drinkable beer that hides the alcohol very well. I may need more lessons in the ways of dopplebock.

Mar 30, 2003 Nice "Dark Strong Beer" from the "Oldest Brewery in the World." Great smell, good head, wonderful, germanic finish. Not the best double bock I've had, but in the top ten.

Jun 3, 2006 Dark brown-mahogany body with a big, foamy beige head. Interesting warm caramel, roasted marshmallow, and dark bread crust aromas. Chocolate, caramel, and mild dark fruit flavors with medium high malty sweetness. Initial fizziness subsides and leaves a smooth, creamy texture. A good, tasty doppelbock from a proven brewery.
