Close to Brewmaster Dan Carey’s heart, this Doppelbock’s journey began with Dan’s re-discovery of whole cone Diamant hops grown at his urging in Hallertau, Germany. Over ten years of his personal heritage barley research resulted in Dan choosing this seed propagation of Czech barley kilned as Pilsner Malt here is Wisconsin. He reveled in the challenge of double decoction brewing in his rescued 1962 copper Brewhouse, rehomed to New Glarus in 1997. This strong Bock lagered 10 weeks in the cellar before resting in the bottle 6 months for mature flavor perfection. Every journey begins with a single step.

12 oz bottle purchased at Sendik’s Fresh2GO near Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The pour is a clear brown, ruby, copper with a half inch tan head that falls quick. The aroma is a rich caramel malt, brown sugar, and herbal yeast. The taste is brown sugar, soft roast, caramel then finishes with the herbal. The palate is medium to heavier bodied with soft carbonation and a clean sweet herbal grass finish. Nice doppelbock.

Aromas are dark malt and roast with hints of molasses, raisins and bread. Flavors are similar to nose, true to style except for maybe a bit thin. Pretty good traditional style beer overall.

12oz bottle. $7.89 a six pack. Don't think you can do much better than that for this level of beer. Deep malt tone, rich caramel, bready. Sweet and rich. Really good.

Refrigerated 12 oz brown bottle from Drake. Medium/darker brown with medium beige head. Aroma is nuts, medium body, lower carbonation, and a little lacing. Taste is nuts and cocoa. One of the better dobbelbocks I have had.

New Glarus did a good job with this style that i cannot recall seeing from them in the past. Medium sweet. Malt flavor, a mild toasted grain quality and dry earthiness. --- Beer merged from original tick of Gyrator Doppel on 01 Oct 2021 at 15:35 - Score: 7

12 ounce bottle from Woodman's Oak Creek, 9/18/21. Clear bronze, medium creamy tan head, good retention. Looks nice. Aroma of toffee, raisin, cherry, some toast. Taste is anise, toffee, cherry, plum. Slick, medium-full bodied. Well balanced with some mild bitterness. Nice beer. Glad I got a half case.
