Striking a balance between two worlds, Krummholz strives to convey the impression of decadence without the cloying sweetness to match. Isaria 1924, an heirloom German barley selected for its sweet and bready flavor, makes the perfect base malt from which to build from. Late-season maple syrup known for its robust character is added at several points during fermentation to both dry out the beer and give it its bold maple flavor.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark brown/maroon color with a finger and a quarter of eggshell white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: earthy to bisuity malts; toasted nuts, maple syrup - pretty light; nice dark bready tone coming about
Flavor: between sweet and toasty - mostly pretty balanced; slight aftertaste of toasted nuts and earthiness
Texture: medium bodied, good sipper; earthy grip makes some abrasion on my tongue but nothing overbearing; finishes dark bready and maple syrup-like
Overall: I guess this is Upper Pass's take on a doppelbock, as far as I know it works and I very much look forward to having again.

8 oz draft at Cask On! Aroma and flavor are the same. Prune, raspberry, and perhaps aspirin. Maple, I guess. Not sure why I am getting a off flavor here??
