bottle into a glass-FIRST DRINK-Nice nutty flavor, deep brown in color and a nice head. very drinkable. LAST DRINK-I’ll admit i am not a huge fan of german beers, but this is a definite exception. A very well made beer, head still present to the end.

Sampled at a recently attended lager seminar and poured to stemware a dark brown with some amber tones showing through when held up to the light. The head was a bubbly tan foam which left some spotty lacing. The aroma was thick toasty malt, with caramel, molasses, and brown sugar notes. The flavor was the aroma notes plus a nice, creamy mouthfeel and full body. Impressive.

Bottle. Pours a very dark ruby colour, almost black, with a big tan head. Spicy, fruity nose with coffee, molasses and raisins present. Taste is fairly similar but not too much sweetness. The coffee stands out reminding me of a few of my favourite porters. A full bodied beer that isn’t overpowering but very easy to drink.

Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of molasses, chocolate and toffee. Taste is a full body caramel, toffee with a light bitterness. Oh man this is good.

pours a dark brown color with a tan head that had great retention, but no lacing. Aroma was of nice Molasses notes and mild bread. Flavor seemed a bit lacking. A good sweet syrup flavor and not much in the way of bready malt notes. Body a a creamy sensation. Nice but could have been more.

Really suprised to see such high marks for this beer. I really didn’t think it was all that, and I could think of a dozen or more dopplebocks that I enjoyed more but are lower rated.

The beer pours out a beautiful mahogany brown color, creamy 2" thick light tan head. The body looks almost purple if you stare at it long enough. Aroma is toasted bread, sour malts, molasses a bit of roasted pepper. Flavor has some light molasses notes, and a mineral water like taste...reminds me of sour/tart malts...hard to describe. Some burnt toast also peeks it’s head out. Honestly, it gets a score a bit higher than it should because it looks beautiful in the glass. The aroma and flavor just aren’t all that.

Pours dark brown with light brown head. Powerful malt aroma. Very pleasant taste and velvety mouthfeel. An excellent bock.

Dark ruby brown with a firm and lasting tan head. Intense sweet bready malt aroma, with dried fruits, molasses, cognac. Rich and sweet malt and caramel flavour, with darker notes of licorice and dark molasses. It’s sweet, but balanced enough.
