Deep cola coloured body with a thinnish light brown head - nice and ruby coloured tint near the bottom - very transparent! Aroma of nice fresh malt, brown sugar, maple, smoke and even a bit of prunes. Full-bodied; Strong malty taste with a lot of sugars, plentiful spices and a good dose of potent anise and clove flavours. Aftertaste shows nicely - chewy malty tastes throughout with enough sugar to be a dessert. Overall, a good doppelbock - strong up front but fading to a nice end! I sampled this 500 mL bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Clarendon (Arlington), Virginia on 24-February-2008.

Bottle. Mahogony beer with a small light tan head. Rich caramel, fig, raisin aroma. Rich caramel, raisin, fig, brown sugar flavor with a bit of earthiness. Medium body. Alcohol well hidden. Doesn’t finish as rich. Earthiness, caramel lingers with a bit of tinniness.

Bottle, 7,0%. Weak malty, sweet aroma. Clear dark brown colour, small semi-stable head. Good flavour, quite malty and also a little sweet. Roasted notes along with pepper and a little tartness to balance. Dusty finish with a hint of dried fruit. Soft carbonation. A very good Doppelbock.

Pour is a deep dark black with a small tan head. Aroma is lots of caramel and dark fruit. Flavor is again dark fruit with lots of caramel and candi sugar. Finish is very sweet. A bit weak for a dopple but this is prety good.

Deep dark brown color with a medium tan head and patchy lacing. The aroma is bready malt and fruit. Medium-bodied and creamy with roasted malt, fruit (raisins) and caramel flavors. The finish is tart and fruity with touches of malt. A decent enough beer, although it doesn’t really fit into the Doppelbock flavor profile that I prefer.

Deep brown body, resembling a dark iced tea. Thick, puffy dissipating off-white head. Aroma of caramel and toffee in addition to toast and hints of raisin. Sharp body of burnt caramels and brown sugar, toast, alcohol, balanced by earthy hops. Dry and rather thin but with good complexity.
