This is the best Bock I’ve had outside Germany. Malty sweet but not cloying, strong with no bite - it’s a maltheads’ dream! Puts other dopples like Celebrator to shame.

Hell yes. Nice, thick, dark doppelbock. Humongous tan mass of a head. Aroma is of caramel and chocolate malts, apple cinnamon muffins. Sweet. Flavor is complex - rich and creamy. Chocolate and caramel play a leading role. Toasted pecans. Nutty, with a cedar-like aspect. Persistent head and medium viscosity make it a palate’s paradise. Malts, glorious malts. A delicious doppelbock done right. This might be the epitome of German doppelbocks.

500ml bottle from the LCBO. Pours a very dark, burnt caramel colour, exactly like Coke, with a medium sized tan head. Aroma: Metalic hops, loads of caramalt, chocolate, toffee, oats, and roasty, almost burned malts. It’s very reminiscent of dark German bread, except it’s dipped in molasses, and I love it! It smells really good! Taste: Quite sweet, as I expected, but not overly so. Most of the above mentioned aspects, but a bit of smokey peat is evident. Awesome fuller mouth-feel. A little bit of alcohol is evident, but not as much as I was fearing. it’s extremely well integrated actually. There’s an undertone of tinny hops that is mild buy keeps this sweet brew from being cloying, which speaks volumes of the quality of this brewers abilities. The quasey creepy guy on the label somehow makes this beer more enjoyable, like, this is what some really weird but cool Imperial German guy must drink. One of my all-time favourite beers.

If you can locate this fine bock, DO NOT pass up the opportunity!! This is a world class treat. This is a huge brew; tons of rich, full malts in the aroma and taste; warming alcohol presence; goes down very silky smooth with a long, sweet finish. Bock characteristics dominate with some restrained weisse beer aroma and flavors integrated. This is GREAT!!

If Celebrator is the champ of Doppel....This is a VERY close second. Sweet and creamy. Excellent!

Color is dark brown with significant head retention. Aroma is redolent of Munich malts and Vienna with some chewy raisin notes in the background: I could just sit here smelling this beer and be quite content. Taste is of carmel, roast, some biscuit notes with a slow-burn in the finish. The complexity of the malts is the highlight of what to me is a beer of the highest quality.
