3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
(swing top bottle) Clear, dark amber colour with a small, slightly off-white head. Sweet, slightly roasted dark malt aroma with caramel (leaves the impresion of German malt bonbons) and a light spicy herbal hoppy touch in the background. Sweet and slightly bitter flavour, medium to full bodied with a well-carbonated and matured mouthfeel. Solid dark and slightly roasted malty base with caramel and hints of liquorice and herbal notes in the background; sweet-bitter, rounded toast-malty and elegantly hopped finish. The first brew from Altötting that convinces me.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Malzig-klebriger Antrunk, der den Alkoholgehalt nicht verbirgt, es noch nicht einmal versucht. Gleich darauf wird der Doppelbock aber sehr mild, neben der Würzigkeit ist das Bier doch tatsächlich wässrig. Unharmonisch geht es weiter, der Nachgeschmack, wo solche Biere meist noch einmal punkten können, ist tatsächlich etwas stärker, jedoch ist auch dieser wässrig, die Röstmalzigkeit lässt gar einen sauren Note noch Platz. Merkwürdiges, aber nicht gutes Bier.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Nice red-mahogany color; the head reduces quickly, but leaves a nice lace. The aroma is malty and sweet, as only German Bock are, at times. The flavor is also very sweet, malty (not thick), with sweet caramel and a touch of ripe apples. You may find it oversweet, but I like it, for example to finish a meal.
