COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Unlucky 13? If anything, 13 has been a lucky number and year for us! Here is our version of a Weizen Doppelbock, a very rarely brewed style marrying the complexities of two great German traditions, Weiss and Doppelbock. The aroma is dominated by fruity and spicy esters produced by the German Weiss yeast strain with a dry drinkability from the wheat malt. The flavor and color are dominated by the unique specialty grains that produce the Doppelbocks flavors of fresh baked bread, toffee and cocoa, and a dark-ruby red hue. Since goats have traditionally adorned Bock labels, we chose a Rocky Mountain Goat for this Rocky Mountain Bock. Peace to all and follow your dreams! Brewed with Rocky Mountain water, malted barley, malted wheat, imported German specialty grains and hops, and one unique German yeast.

jerohen (1775) - Bussum, NETHERLANDS - OCT 28, 2007

Dutch Ratebeer Meeting. Clear brown coloured, brown head. Lactic aroma, stout-like, some alcvohol, fruity notes. Sweet liquorice flavour. Lingering finish. Perhaps overly alcoholic in flavour.

handsomejn (40) - Arkansas, USA - OCT 19, 2007

Pours deep red/brown, medium to thick on the texture, thin head (almost no carbonation), coffee candy flavor, sweet finish, sours on the long finish. The one I drank was very mature and aged quickly in the glass.

Gusler (2655) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - OCT 19, 2007

The beer departs the 22 ounce brown bottle a deep brown with nice ruby highlight, the head is tan in color, the texture creamy and the size about two fingers, as it decomposes, the lace forms a tight skirt upon the glass. Nose has a nice fruity aroma, cotton candy like, hints of malt also present. Start is nicely malted, sweet with a moderate to full feel to the palate. Finish has a determined acidity, the hops pleasant, somewhat sweet and dry the aftertaste lingers long on the palate, quite good in my book.

tarjei (1941) - Bryne, NORWAY - OCT 14, 2007

1 pint bottle. Dark brown color, lovely beige head. Sweet malt, hints of coffee, dark chocolate, liqorice and roasted malt. Sweet, with bitter finish. Vinous. Very good.

tenghave (402) - Taastrup, DENMARK - SEP 26, 2007

Tung kastaniefarvet øl. Duften er Viniøs, røget og sød. Smagen er meget meget tung og blød. Meget sød og krydret. Og Fyldig iunden. Øllen er for stærk, og er slet ikke så frisk som en øl gerne må være. Gæren kan kun let anes. Alcohollem er tydelig, og øllen bliver vammel efterhånden som den bliver varmere. Ikke megen kulsyre.

travita (2535) - Frisco, Texas, USA - SEP 20, 2007

Black with nice head and good ruby highlights. Smell is nice. Taste has wheat characteristics some toffee flavors. The maltiness sweetness from the bock also really shine through.

b33r (457) - Cleveland, Alabama, USA - SEP 20, 2007

Aged one year. Dark brown/amber color with big frothy tan head and beautiful lacing. I smelled bananas immediately after opening, which faded to a weak malty and spicy aroma. Dominant malt flavor, with nice sweetness and light fruits. Complex, full-bodied and delicious
