Bottle at Chris_O bottlefest 2007. Amber with beige head. I have nothing to say about this beer. It’s got some syrupy alcohol. Dull.

Clear copper-amber beer with a very large yellowish, dense head. Quite some caramel, sweet, bit earthy & leafy notes; peanuts, bakery oil during frying. Sweetish taste, with again leafy and greenery notes. The sweetness is a bit maple- or maltsyrup in appearance, but it is dimmed by a discreet bitterness, that apart from the leafy, has some hoppy overtones. It’s got a good balance, which takes it over the limit of "usual". Slick, well-bodied, on the verge of syrupy texture. A bit unusual Bock, but fairly well-made and pleasing. Its balance is its point of excellence.Worth looking for! Txs to DerDoppelbock!

Poured clear golden with nice white head. Aroma is light with sweet malts, some wheat and cereal. The taste begins sweet and cereal like and then quickly becomes bitter as the hoppiness runs across my tongue.

Bottle: Deep golden coloured; mid-sized firm head, slowly vanishing, lacing; sweet malty nose (caramel, bisquits), a touch of brandy; the initial slight bitterness is followed by a heavy sweetish-malty flavour with a tinge of bitterness, which ends mainly swett and malty. A good, average Bock, maybe a bit too sweet...........!?
