Caramel, burned sugar and hop bitterness in the aroma. Red chestnut colour, low creamy head. Sweet solid malt body, some hop bitterness, sherry warmth. Velvet mouthfeel with a slight tinkle on the tongue. Sweet but not cloying malty aftertaste. Very nice doppelbock - The brewers at Faust know their stuff.
