Since 2005, Uerige has also been brewing a special strong beer for the American market. Our DoppelSticke has a remarkable 8.5% abv and yet tastes unmistakable: it truly is the yummy droplet!
After the initial herbal aroma of hops, which tends to surprise the palate, there follows a firework of flavor sensations ranging from caramelized sugar, malts, and herbs to rich touches of dark chocolate and rum, only to eventually fade gently and lustrously.
True aficionados tend to simply ignore our recommended minimum shelf life of eight weeks – rather, they swear by storing their DoppelSticke in the cellars for an entire year first.

Bottle, courtesy of Erzengel, shared with Undos and Gabor at Ganz. Pours a deeper copper, almost brown with tan head. Nose is cocoa, light chocolate notes, roasted malts, toffee and caramel. Taste is sweet malty, showing caramel, toasted and roasted malts, light chocolate and biscuits with little to no bitterness. Closes with a long lastin, malty finish, has a big body and soft carbonation. Lovely, thanks Gabriel for making it possible for me to try this classic!

Very dark cloudy brown, medium beige head. Dark, caramel aroma, big bready boozy malts. Dark roast, and nutiness. This is very similar to a big thick syrupy e glish barley wine. The finish is medium bitter, with an interesting unexpected pine resin flavor. A great sipper.

Bottiglia. All'olfatto si esprimono sentori di sottobosco. La finezza olfattiva è elevata e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma color caffelatte dalla buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il colore è come l'inchiostro nero. Il corpo è strutturato. Il dolce è medio. L'amaro è contenuto. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Il retrogusto è intenso. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, liquirizia, frutta secca, pane cotto di recente, agrumi, frutta passita, uvetta bagnata nel rum e alcol presente.

Аромат хлебный по началу, немного карамельных и медовых ноток, полноту аромата коньячных сладких ярких оттенков а также изюм. Цвет темно коричневый, пенка средняя, хотя быстро падает. Вкус весьма тяжелый, очень горький, сразу ощущаются сладкие-коньячные нотки. А также дрожжи и много солода. При глотке жутко мощная горечь, даже немного вяжущая язык и горло. Чувствуются пряные нотки, солод и снова коньяк. В целом многогранное пиво, но убер сильная горечь все портит как по мне.

Bottle with swingtop 0,33ltr: Dark brown colored brew with an slightly burning feel in the mouth and an sweet bitter taste. Load of caramel hints and a touch of roasted malts. The heaviest Altbier? Why not.
