pour was awesome- dark dark ruby with an incredibly formed head- rose from the bottom with carbonation, coolest looking pour i’ve ever seen. lacing was extremely thick, almost no holes to it. Aroma has lots of roasted malt, some sweet hints of brown sugar, caramel and molasses. also a very slight hint of dark fruit. flavor is very much similar to aroma, but has a great kick of roasted malt when the beer hits the back of the tongue. Mouthfeel not as strong as impys or belgian strongs, but still an absolutely superb beer.

Oct 8, 2008 Pours a light brown. Excellent lacing. Sweet aroma. Excellent palate on this beer. Very smooth. Picking up some sweet brown sugar in the initial taste.

Oct 7, 2008 Dark amber brown with a tan head. Malty with a raisin taste. Extremely rich, but easy to drink. Best Doppel I’ve ever had.

does not count  Oct 7, 2008 Wow, tastes like grape juice, but this is a beer?! Very good taste and dark color. I would buy it more if it weren’t so expensive where I am.

Oct 4, 2008 Poured from an 11.5oz bottlle. Dark brown with a bit of red when held up to a bright light source. Thick, longlasting, tan head. Aroma of malt with a hint of raisins. Very thick malty taste with a nice hop balance on the finish. This is my first experience with a doppelbock. I can’t imagine one that could be better.

Sep 30, 2008 Oh this is a terrific Doppelbock. Aroma of candied fruits. Beautiful dark ruby red pour. Taste of fruits, malts some hops in the finish. Best example of the style I’ve tried.
