Bock - Doppelbock Rotating

Score

7.38

ABV: 12.5%

IBU: -

Ticks: 75

A collaboration between Bret & Eric Kuhnhenn and Erik Harms of Dragonmead, this beer truly defies categorization. This beer is not for the hopheads - this is an intense malt-bomb. Heathen starts off similar to a traditional German Doppelbock, then goes to 11... 12.5 actually. Rich malt notes persist with flavors and aromas reminiscent of candied fruits, Christmastime spices, and a touch of smokiness. Very little bitterness throughout with flavors that persist long after the swallow. If Doppelbock was known as "liquid bread," this Triple Bock is more like "Liquid Sandwich."

Bottle at Mondiale ’07. nice dark brown color, nice small beige head. Aroma is ALL malt. and then some, with a little caramel, and slight fruit in the backdrop. Flavour is MALT, this is a malt bomb, and whoa, quite boozey. nice effort, a little too much booze, but wow, if you are a malt freak, this is for you!

Bottle. Pours a dark amber with small off white head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is wood, vanilla, booze. Thin mouth, vanilla, candy sugar, caramel, boozy finish, very good.

330 ml bottle, v2012, thanks to Nightfall. Dark brown color with red notes and small beige head that disappears. Aroma is malty, light roasted, very fruity, dark dried fruits, light chocolate, some caramel, wood. Sweet and light bitter taste like aroma which gets light alcoholic when the beer gets warmer. Medium oily body with flat carbonation.
