Draught Hazy amber: small yellow head. Sweet cake and spicy wood, some resin. Starting very good with resin, then tumbles down to rosewater. First impression is heaven, at the end it is just dead. Sickly palate, way too many restsugars, not even fruity. Weird. Then again, with such a name...

From tap. Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Mild spiced and yeasty aroma. Flavour holds caramel and spices to a mild yeasty base flavour. Smooth yet not without a bite. Lingering mellow yeasty finish. Nice and smooth.

Bottled. Hazy pale amber, rich firm head. Rich cardamom aroma. Sweet and soft, medium bodied with flavour of bun dough. Light minerally bitterness. Pretty good, but not really a bock.

Bottled. Hazy golden, small head. Sweet and fruity, medium-full bodied with soft, dense mouthfeel. Very sugary, where sweetness completely takes over. Hops are hardly visible. Despite all the sugar alcohol comes through. More like an oversweetned Polish mocný than a doppelbock.

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of yespr. Slightly hazy golden with an off-white head. Clean and lightly sweet malt aroma. Quite full-bodied with plenty of sweet pale malts with some floral accents. Lightly bitter finish. One of the rare pale Doppelbocks. 190608
