Bottle from the Kloster. Brown with a foamy head of modest duration. Aroma promises prunes, toffee and hazelnuts. Taste is moderate sweet with hints of bitterness at the back. Medium bodied, slightly watery texture, carbonation thats a bit too prickly for the style. Decent.

Bottle. OMG!! This is my new favorite beer!! You take the best elements of all doppelbocks and add a touch of the great abt/quadruples and this is what you get. Wonderful dark color with a slightly sweet flavor that reminds me of Christmas, (Must be the time of the year). Ok, I pray this one stays in our area. I believe I might be drinking it for years to come. This one is WAY underrated. Highly recommended . (Rerated Because I had better beers since)

On tap at Bavarian Lodge. Pours a clear deep brown with a tan head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has dark grains and bread with a hint of roast and leaves backing. Flavor has a nice dark grain with a bit of earthy roast with some bread coming through.

Can, undated, bc OEC's 20 billion dollar brewhouse can't afford a date stamper, apparently. Drunk 11/10/23. Clear, mahogany-dark amber. Small, dark beige, charred tan head. Bready, crunchy, crusty. Not much in the way of bright acidity or deep malt. Same flavors. Way too much specialty malt. Bready, crusty, drying. Medium-light bodied. Thinner than it should be. Caramel and brown bread lingers...

Bottle 33 cl. Comes as Ettaler Curator 1609 at 7,0% bought at the Kloster in July '23. Why a 7% Dunkler Bock is aliased to a 9% Doppelbock totally beats me - a clear and obvious mistake. Pours a clear, dark orangey brown with a small, creamy, beige head. Amazing aroma of dark, dried fruits and molasses - almost like a Quadrupel. Rich, sweet molasses, dark dried fruits slight roast and chocolate with sufficient bitterness. World class Dunkler Bock. 250923

Bottle pour from The Beer Store, Salem (label has this as Historic Recipe but description is exactly the same so I am assuming same recipe and including here). It's a clear cola brown-mahogany with fizzy tan head quickly fading to ring, light sparkle. Aroma is strong caramel, raisin, fig, brown sugar, cherry, toffee, light licorice. Taste follows aroma with less licorice. Medium bodied and smooth with mild alcohol warmth. Good complexity and smooth. Very nice!
