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.

Maria (7805) - Thisted, DENMARK - JAN 2, 2007
Its a red mahogany color and the head is huge, golden and creamy. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and a little fruit. The flavour is sweet, for a moment I find it very sweet, fruity, spicy and it has notes of roasted malt, licorice and the finish is long and lightly bitter. I kind of like this one, but then again it is a bit dominating in the overall impression and it should be more wheaty. 1722

LCRBM2: Banana and grapes in the almost vinous aroma and flavor. Brown sugar aftertaste. Indeed, not very subtle.

JoeMcPhee (6835) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 26, 2006
tap at dba. Clear garnet/ruby tinted dark brown beer with a thin light brown head. Beautiful fruity aroma (grapes, plums, cherries) over lovely dark toasted malts. Prominent rummy aroma along with a touch of mint over a sweet maltiness. Flavour is nice, malt accented with strong toasted malts and plummy/pruny sweetness over brown sugar and dark rum. I liked the Oktoberfest and I like this, despite how much I dislike their Belgians... stick to Germany Avery, you do it well.
