Jul 30, 2006 Bottled (BB 10/2006).
Dark amber - ruby color, small tan head. Burnt malts and sugar in the aroma, hints of coffee too. Sweetish sugary, burnt malty, light grassy hoppy. Well-balanced sweetish doppelbock - very good!

Jul 24, 2006 Many thanks to EDA for bringing this to the NYRBG - now THIS is a doppelbock - creamy and full-bodied, with soft carbonation - caramel and vanilla at the fore, followed by raisins and other dark, dried fruits - buttery, with balancing hops arriving late - earthy thoughout, with an almost belgian-like cellared quality - awesome.

Jul 14, 2006 0.5L Bottle, BB 8/28/06. Thanks to sk8viking for getting this across the pond! Poured a clear, fiery autumn orange with an 1/8" residual cap of beige head. Nose was somewhat airy with dark, lightly-toasted malts...lots of caramel, nutty cherry-infused sponge cake, crisp woody/leafy hoppage, mild veggie mash, and buttered toffee. The flavor sported a consistent flow of toasty malts (caramel, toffee, and nutty flavors), some fruit (cherries and mild vinous notes), and rustic hoppage... finish was long, malty, and a bit on the tacky side. The complexity was high, and this was well balanced. Great brew!

Jun 5, 2006 Bottle. Pours a dark copper-brown with a small and persistent creamy tanned head. The aroma is full of raisins, chocolate, cherries, caramel, and tofeee - overall very pleasant. Big chocolatey body - sweetish toasty malts with some of that cherry cake fluffiness. Alcohol warmth in the finish and some chocolate chalkiness. Generally soft palate and bursting with complexity. Very good.
Tasted this on a train (IC 2115) from Hamburg to Düsseldorf on May 25, 2006.
