Have always loved porters and stouts. In recent years I have grown to really enjoy European and American lagers.

16 oz can. 12/09/2025. Aroma of roasted malt, mild roasted coffee and chocolate. The coffee character is bold and strong even being 6 months old. Body is a tad lean for the style but still medium. Smoother texture. Pretty good.

16 oz bottle shared by tfontana. Aroma has guava-ish, peach-ish, passion fruit- ish. Flavor is true to the style and has the same fruit as the aroma. This is a single hop that displays a lot of fruit. Nice juice texture and also has very minimal bitterness.

16 oz can. Thanks to S & L. Aroma shows me a toned down caramel, toffee, yeast. Having a true authentic Doppelbock front of it really makes it slightly pale in comparison. Almost has a table sugar hint to it. Just ok.

16 oz can. Thanks to S & L. Aroma shows a moderate amount of marijuana next to peach and mango. flavor follows with the dank characteristics not being completely all up in your face. Pretty decent balance. Does get a little sweet with malt. Sweetness stacks as you drink.
