Bamberg Bash, Day 1. Train bottle swig. Hazy deep amber beer, good cream coloured head. Palate is softish and semi dry. Rich malt, unsweet toffee. Little spice and a whisper of bubblegum. Dry finish. Tasty.

a) Im Geruch würzig-süßlich. leicht staubig. Die 8,2% sind sofort zu schmecken, das Ganze ist leicht süßlich-hefig. Im Nachgeschmack allerdings übel muffig-ranzig-bitter…
Test vom 24.1.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 12,10,10,1,12,5 - 6,95

b) Das Bier beginnt süßlich-bitter, schön vollmundig und sehr verbrannt-karamellig. Süffig-süßlich und schon fast dickflüssig. Der Hauptteil ist tief, caramell, dukler Zucker, dabei aber nicht zu süß und angenehm herb. Der Nachgeschmack ist wärmend-tief, bitter-berb, toll dickflüssig-herb-süßlich.
Ein tolles Bockbier! 13/12/12/13

Beautifully executed doppelbock. Dark amber with thin silky head, nice sourish malty aroma. taste is even richer with hints of caramel, toffee, butterscotch, malt, buttery smooth and soft lingering on the palate. A treasure to enjoy!

Bottled. Coppery colour with a frothy off-white head with good duration. Aroma is sweet, caramel, bready and alcoholic. Flavor has brown sugar notes, malty, toasty, sweet with a light bitterness, alcohol is present as well but very good compensated. The final is alcoholic with sugar notes and malty.
