Wynkoop Adulterator Anniversary Bock

Brewed by Wynkoop Brewing Company
Style: Doppelbock
Denver, Colorado USA

Very sweet aroma. Hops are present in the aftertaste, dry with minimal lager-esuq characteristics. An almost cinamon/pumpkin flavor to it. Deep red-brown minimal head. Good having hop & malt flavors, but they weren’t married, if you will -very much so a one after another in terms of flavor.

The malt came off almost metallic. I love the food in the brewery but this was not right.

I remember this as a very thick beer with great smooth flavor. There may have been a bitter aftertaste, but my buds were blasted after trying the Wynkoop Weizenbock. I would order this beer again, if only because of the name!

Draught. Pours dark brown with a creamy tan head. Caramel roasted malt (cookie) and sweet maple aroma, lightly hopped. Caramel malt roasted flavor with hoppy notes and maple. Medium and warm body, smooth palate.

Draught, Wynkoop, Denver. Head is mostly diminishing. Body is dark brown. Aroma is moderately malty (roasted grain, molasses, chocolate), with a note of bubble gum, light note of smoke. Flavor is heavily sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, moderately bitter. Medium to full body, watery texture, lively carbonation, lightly alcoholic. Wasn’t completely sure this was a doppelbock with no ABV info and not a lot of obvious ETOH in the finish, but it was a relatively thick, sweet beer and called a bock, with an -ator ending, so...seems pretty likely. Anyways, this was decent enough, somewhat simple and too sweet but certainly not bad at all.
