Taster at the brewery. Pours clear, orange color, with a fair, off-white head. The nose is caramel, rotten apple, and caraway. Sweet and syrupy, with a touch of unfortunate, sappy bitterness. Light body, chemically, and acrid. Unpleasant.

Sample at ACBF. Referred to as a Doppelbock, at 8.1%, but whatever. Pours a clear, dark, orange color, with a small, fine, tan head. The aroma is butterscotch, whole grains, syrup, and pine. Sweet and yeasty, with a mild bitterness. Medium body, with a syrupy, slick mouthfeel. This is a pretty fun, mellow, and clean lager.
