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.

beerBB (132) - Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 29, 2006

dark brown pour. some roasted malt aroma, not much hop. fiarly sweet flaovrs. Overall too boozy. 9.5% is significant but the alcohol aroma and flavors dominate this beer and overpower some of the flavors I think they could have achieved. Not my favorite Avery by far

patrick767 (2772) - fort wayne, Indiana, USA - NOV 23, 2006

bottle - Pours dark brown with an aroma of malt, yeast, and banana. The flavor pretty well matches the aroma with some alcohol thrown in mainly in the finish. It goes down easy. This is a very tasty beer and worth trying.

biggcb (464) - Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 20, 2006

Bottle. I found this to be a little on the boozy side in both aroma and taste. Not terribly hot, but more than what I expected. Good bit of yeast is aroma and taste. Fruity. Some sweetness. Good bit of malt.

beermouth (435) - Langeskov, DENMARK - NOV 20, 2006

Clear amber with large, creamy offwhite head. Hops, caramel, cane sugar and spice. To sweet for my taste, but good anyway. Needs’s to store for a year or two.

thedm (4116) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - NOV 18, 2006

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a very large sized head of foamy light brown colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent strongly carbonated dark caramel brown colored body. The aroma was malty sweet and mild wheat. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a lingering vinous aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of malt sweet vinous and mild caramel. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again.

AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20

Marc (485) - Yokosuka, JAPAN - NOV 18, 2006

Big smooth banana bread, coco, pepper, and a spike of alcohol in the nose. Dark chestnut body with a persistant fine tan head. Uncooked banana bread, cream, pepper, dough, coco, malted milk, roasted malts, and a touch of alcoholic heat at the end. Mouthfeel is smooth with a touch of spiceyness running into a bready coco finish like a piece of banana bread dipped in porter.
