SuIIy (1109), W Newton, Massachusetts, USA Jul 4, 2005 Bottle from clarkvv. Medium amber color with off white foamy head.Nose is nutty, caramel, sweet malt. Flavor is spicy, cranberry tartness and fairly smooth. radiomgb (1776), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Mar 15, 2005 Updated: Mar 16, 2005On tap at Smokeless Joe. Deep brown in colour. Aroma was or caramel malt, some alcohol and was quite sweet. A caramel sweetness dominated the flavour up front, floral hops becoming noticable in back. Sticky mouthfeel, medium body, light carbonation. Finishes with a light bitterness. Meh. jerc (3217), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jan 29, 2005 Ruby bodied, very small off white head. Aroma is sweetly fruity and malty. Flavour is a bit odd, nutty, hints of leafy raspberry. Sweetly alcoholic with a sharp finish. Bit rough. Average, medium bodied palate. Disappointing. Thanks for the delivery Pootz/Sammy. Sanchex (221), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jan 19, 2005 Deceptively smooth for an 8.2% beer. Expected it to be a little bolder considering it is a Dopplebock. Deep mahogony color, sweet malty flavor with a somewhat dry but not clean finish. Bought this at the Amsterdam brewery in Toronto; well worth the visit if you are in town. cheers! Sammy (3141), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Dec 29, 2004 A surprisingly good brew by this brewery and by far the highest I have rated anything by them as well as a top 10 Ontario brewed. Nice brown amber colour with suds and works. A yeasty nutty real chocolate and sweet spicey understated aroma. Some good yeast and it all works. Nothing soapy here. Medium mouthfeel. Thanks Pootz/Pootzboy.
