Er zit een enorm overheersend kruid in. Verder wel goed drinkbaar

Fles van de lokale Appie. De geur is nog niet eens zo uitgesproken en goed, maar dit bier blinkt uit in de moutbasis. Hoe die zo mooi in balans is en lang blijft hangen is echt fantastisch. Ik moet echt meer Duits bier drinken.

Doppelbock by the archetypical German style Bock producer, intended as a winter warmer. Bottle from an Albert Heijn supermarket. Yellowish pale beige, regularly shaped, moussy head, gradually dissipating and opening in the middle, clear (filtered), warm and pure copper robe with lovely, deep ruddy-bronze hue and vivid sparkling. Aroma of hot caramel, warm biscuit, maple syrup, fresh lavender leaves, fig compote, cloves, brandy, Rumtopf, cookies, almond cake, brown rum. Sweet, clean onset, fig and candy apple impressions, light basic sourish note, medium carbonation; slick, rounded, bit resinous mouthfeel, cookie- and caramel candy-like maltiness with a lightly bitterish toasty edge, soon drenched in warming, if not heating and eventually somewhat astringent brandy-like alcohol. Ends sweet (in a very pure malt way) and boozy as any Doppelbock should; the alcohol could have been a bit better hidden in order to lift this one up to the upper league of Doppelbocks, but otherwise this is a fine and indeed warming, very classically made example of the style, as expected from this brewery.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Albert Heijn Culemborg. Ruby red brown with a thin white head. Malty caramel aroma. Sweet taste with a metallic earthy finish. Good as a bock, lacking in strength and taste as a doppelbock.

Thuis uit een flesje, leuk afwijkend type, etiket wat gewoon. Mooie helder robijnrode kleur, goed beige schuim. Volle smaak, ook karamel. Lekker.
