COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Dieser dunkle Doppelbock wird bereits Ende Juni jeden Jahres eingebraut und allerdings nur in der Winterzeit - vor allem zu Weihnachten - ausgeschenkt. Seine kastanienbraune dunkle Farbe und das kräftige Malzaroma verleiht ihm das gut ausgedarrte "Münchner Malz". Der Winterbock ist äußerst süffig und angenehm malzaromatisch. Spaziergänge an kalten Wintertagen und gesellige Abende in der Vorweihnachtszeit finden in diesem kräftigen dunklen Doppelbock eine passende Krönung. Er passt gut zu kräftigen Braten und vor allem zu süßen Speisen und Gebäck. Ein herrlicher Gute -Nacht Trunk.

Jukkabro (3471) - Tampere, FINLAND - AUG 13, 2011
(BBE 5/2011) Dark red colored with brown hints, little vanishing yellow head. Rich sweet and fruity, caramelly aroma with some nutty, slightly licoricy note, rather sweet one. Medium bodied. Flavor is also on sweet side, licorice dominating, thin alcohol comes up in lasting, sweet caramelly aftertaste.

Koelschtrinker (7037) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 5, 2011
Malzig-würziger, etwas alkoholischer Geruch. Würzig-alkoholischer Antrunk, dabei malzig, eine getreidige Note zeigt sich deutlich, aber unaufdringlich. Dabei ist das Bier nicht, wie erwartet, süß, sondern wird zum Ende hin sogar kurz bitter, dies wird aber von der malzig-würzigen Note, die einen fruchtigen Touch beinhaltet, überdeckt. Test vom 18.6.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,11,11,11,8,11 - 10,45

Travlr (5379) - Washington, Washington DC, USA - APR 24, 2011
Bottle courtesy of Bierkrug - thank you sir! Bright clear amber, small tan head. Aroma of lightly spiced caramel. Taste is butterscotch and pine with a dry bitter finish. Nice.

kevnic2008 (1640) - Baden-Baden, GERMANY - APR 9, 2011
Delicious malty taste, the alcohol is well concealed. In the central part quite spicy for a Doppelbock, the aftertaste is slightly too weak.

Bottle. Sweet prune malt aroma. Clear orange brown color with large off-white head. Sweet prune malt, moderately bitter herbal hops and alcohol astringency. Pretty nice but a bit on the light side.

Bottled 33cl. Courtesy of jaghana. I just realised the brewery isn’t located in the Ulm I know but in a small place very close to french border (Strasbourg). What strikes me first about this beer is the luscious malt presence in the nose and the beautiful clear amber appearance with lovely bubbles rising from the bottom of the glass. Caramel and raisins throughout. Lovely malt profile. Nutty and smooth. Good late bitterness which introduces a finish which makes you eager to take another sip. The alcohol is very nicely hidden by the way. A delicious and flawless Doppelbock. A drink on a cold winter’s night. Thanks a lot jaghana!
