Crikey! The head on this thing dangerous; massive rocky texture, coffe coloured. Body is medium chocolate brown in colour. Aromas are forceful with a malty yeasty note, some burnt toffee and mazipan perhaps. A touch challenging. Palate delivers, mostly, the intensity of the nose. Sweet licorice-infused chocolate, thich malts, some fruit cake and heat on th finish. Low fizz. Drinks bigger than its 6.9%. Good.

Very nice doppel with good color and a qd head. Flavor is of dark malts and candi sugar. Little carbonation and hopping but still a nice drinking beer. This is a good beer to introduce to your Budmiloors friends.

16.9oz bottle. Pours a dark cola brown; fluffy, light tan head with good retention and lacing. Chewy nougat and caramel and dried fruit in the aroma. Medium-to-full, chewy mouthfeel: nougat and caramel upfront; lively carbonation; creamy, vanilla and wet malt core; hints of a mild citrus and floral bitterness. Medium, nougat and roasted malt finish.

Brown and just a little murky, but it’s hard to tell. Sweet maple and tobacco nose, with a creamy and light but frothy texture. Slightly smoky and toasty, sweet overall with flavors of maple, a little hint of meaty bacon and toasted bread crust. Quite good, overall on the sweet side, but really this is what you want with doppelbock.

Dark red, thin brown head. Very lagery aroma, malt, caramel and a bit of metal. Toffee, brown sugar, and malty flavor. Good sweet/bitter balance. Smooth, a bit flat, no alcohol taste. A bit thin but nice tasty finish.

Bottled: Pours attractive mahogeny color with a totally retained light tan head. Aroma is nice combination of chocolate maltiness and lagered aroma. Flavor is nice: chocolate, roasted nuts, raisins, and toffee. Palate is overly thin especially relative to Celebrator. Nice beer.

16.9oz bottle marked 06.02.09, assuming this is best by February 6th, ’09. Pours a clear fairly dark reddish brown and a 1/2 finger beige head. Aroma of toffee, toasted grains, light buttery malts, sugary raisins, and something that may be hazelnuts. Fairly sweet. The flavor even adds a bit of roast and bitterness to help offset what seems to be an overly sweet style. Toasted grain and toffee seem to be the dominant flavors. No alcohol presence at all. Lightly dry finish. I would not call this full bodied--it’s actually kind of light for a doppel--medium is probably closer. Moderate creamy carbonation that prickles the tongue just a little bit. Pretty darn good overall.
