Commercial Description:
Our winter lager is perhaps our most famous beer, though no longer the strongest. Like all traditional German doppelbocks, it is richly spicy with a subtly sweet malt palate and a clean, crisp, dry hop finish. 25 cents from every stein helps to terminate hunger in Washtenaw County.

Couleur caramel aux reflets rougeâtres. Grains, foin et caramel sous une présence d’herbe marquée. Malté et légèrement fruité en bouche, l’alcool est assez facilement identifiable. Corps d’épaisseur semi mince, faible carbonatation. Michigan brewer’s fest, Ypsilanti, Michigan, Juillet 2005.

Terminator Doppelbock pours a hazy toffee brown with very little head. The flavor is bready and sweet with some spice, but disappointingly thin and without much alcohol presence for this style. The best part of this beer for me was the 25 cent donation towards hunger relief.

Light in color, similar to the Troegs with a golden amber red color. Lightly tingly on the tongue up front, sweet and floral, with some candy sugar and fruity notes through, finishing a little heavier on the yeast presence. Not a typical doppelbock but a good high gravity beer regardless.

Sample at brewpub. Pours a light brown color. The taste is sweet with mild spice. It is smooth and drinkable even with the high alcohol content.

Reddish with white soapy head. Some lace. Fruitiness in aroma and in the taste, perhaps too fruity, apple juice more describes the fruit. Well, sweet though drinkable.

On tap at the pub. Aroma of some light chocolate and very sweet and maybe some earthy euro hops. An average body and also some alcohol coming through.
