Full bodied beer. Malty, but not too sweet. Raisin and licorice. Fine hopbitter finish. You hardly notice the alcohol, but when you stand up after having a few of these...

Kaltenberg Ritterbock, Fläschlein aus der Getränke-Oase, München. - Dunkles Mahagoni, klar. - In der Nase bockbiertypisch breites Toastmalz mit Fruchtgelee-Süße, likörartigem Alkohol und gedämpfter Hopfenherbe. - Antrunk wuchtig schwer dunkel-toastmalzig mit derber, aromatisch neutraler Herbe. Gedämpfte rosinige Malzsüße, Malzkaffee, gebrannter Zucker, bitterer Kakao. Milder rezent, ölig schwer, alkoholisch. Im Abgang leicht krautige, sonst leere Bittere mit ein wenig Holz. - Aufgrund der enormen Stammwürze von über 20 % ein sehr schwerer, plumper Bock, dessen konzentrierte Malzigkeit von fern an Maggi denken läßt. Die lieblose Hopfung (es kommt nur Hopfenextrakt zum Einsatz) macht es nicht besser. Leider nur zweitklassig.

Bottle from Beer Zoo. Clear deep ruby body with an off-white head. Aroma of Marmite, smoked ham and soy sauce. Flavour of copper and honey. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. This drinks very easily for the ABV.

330ml bottle – Pours a coppery brown colour with a small tan head that dissipated to a film. Aroma is roasted bready malts, caramel and some marmite. A moderately sweet roasted grainy malt taste, bready, caramel, nutty flavours and a light hop bitterness and an alcohol warmth to finish.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines, Sheffield. Round about 1992 I’d drink Kaltenberg Pils, very occasionally, when I was behind the bar at the Cross Keys, and was fed up drinking cask Stone’s or bottled White Shield. Not sure why, other than it was something different and a little exotic, maybe. I suspect if this was in the fridge then, I might have given this a tickle, and brought on the casual dependency a bit sooner. Dunno. This is equally exotic. It’s a bit tasty and out of the comfort zone. It’s evolutionary, I suppose. Fucken big boost, too...

330 ml served in abbey glass. Dark brown, beige small head. Toffee, roasted malty aroma, dried fruits. Quite bitter for Doppelbock, sweet hint, slight metallic taste. Alcohol taste is strong and warm, but acceptable. Soft carbonated, full body, creamy oily texture. Bitter aftertaste. This beer has character and is definitely different from the better known Doppelbock beers.
