I could add this to fish and chips because it had a flavor of malt vinegar along with some off balanced sweetness, figs, fruits and nuts. The malty tones were to the point that I didn’t finish more than half of this one. Overall, this isn’t a disaster but it doesn’t appeal to my personal tastes. It seems too sweet even though I do like other doppelbocks.

Jul 8, 2008 12oz bottle. pours clear auburn with creamy beige head that clumps together in way similar to mold. not much carrying the aroma but some sweet and toasted malts. flavor is very sweet, a bit nutty and toasted malts, perhaps some raisin but nothing really complex in the flavor dept. med body. decent at best.

Jul 3, 2008 ruby red body with no head. cloyingly sweet aroma and flavor..very sugary, syrupy, with hints of spice and bread..just a touch of raison in the finish...

Jun 25, 2008 Medium brown beer with a foamy, lasting head - aroma of fig, prune, raisin, and a sour, possibly infected character - oh, yea, she tastes sour and infected up front - there is some caramel, raisin, and date underneath, but the acidic, sour flavor ruins it, even making it taste metallic at times.

Jun 24, 2008 Very tastey beer. Pours a dark amber-copper colour, clear, with little to no head. no lacing. aromas are mildly nutty, of malts and black cherry. sweet flavors with a semi tart finish. overall very pleasent.

Jun 2, 2008 Nice, decent bock. I rate this pretty high in Atwater’s beers. Not at good as some, but great compared to most. Nice malty flavor, rare to see in a bock. Great flavor overall.
