Bottled (from fonefan, I think). My German rating #900. Ambery golden colour with small slightly off-white head. Aroma is sweet malts, some slight caramel, bread as well as mild alcoholic sweetness. Flavour is quite much the same with rather herbal/spicy notes as well. Mild bitterness in the finish. Quite easy-to-drink doppelbock. Wellbalanced, but nothing extraordinary.

Bottle, 7.0%. 1 month past BB date. Dark brown colour, small floaties. The flavour is OK malty, has a little breadiness and vinousness. Rough bitterness, but not so high.
