COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Med udgangspunkt i den klassiske Brøckhouse Rød og inspireret af de stærke tyske Doppeltbock, har vi på mørke bayeriske maltsorter brygget en ravfarvet, intens maltet øl med stor fylde. Brøckhouse Epic Rød er brygget med münchner-, wiener-, karamel- og melanoidinmalt og humlet med moderate mængder af de klassiske tyske sorter Perle, Hallertauer Mittlefrüh og Tettnanger. Dette er en øl præget af især de mange forskellige malttyper som giver en intens maltet smag og et flot lyst skum med et skær af øllets farve. Bør serveres ved 8 – 10 grader.

English: Inspired by the powerful German Doppelbock, we have created an amber coloured, intensely malt flavoured beer using Bavarian malts. Brøckhouse Epic Red is brewed using munich-, vienna- caramel- and meladonin malt and moderately hopped with the classical German hops: Perle, Hallertauer Mittlefrüh and Tettnanger. This is a beer influenced by the many different types of malt which gives it a full-bodied malty flavour and a beautiful, white head reflecting the magic colour of the beer. Best served at 10 – 12 degrees celsius.

Cloudy brown beer. Semi dry palate. Semi sweet aged malt that is just slightly sour. A little red fruit underneath. A trace of spicy aniseed. Interesting but not outstanding.

Rating I found in an old note book. Bottle. Poured hazy brown with a slight red hue and a small tan head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma had dark notes with some raisins sticking out as well as a bit of roasted malts and some grains. Flavor began with dark fruits but finish brought out a bit of nuttiness with caramel and raisins.

oh6gdx (16024) - Vasa, FINLAND - OCT 17, 2009
Bottled (brought back fromDenmark this summer). Slightly hazy deep ambery brown colour with mediumsized off-white head, leaves nice lace. Aroma is big time caramel malts, bready malts as well as some slight hops and alcohol. Flavour is quite much the same along with some raisins and plummy notes. A bit strong on the alcohol, but otherwise a very nice and balanced doppelbock.

odgaard (365) - Skyum, Thisted, DENMARK - JUN 30, 2009
Hazy red/brown color with a disappearing head. Aroma: Dominated by malt, yeast and fruit. Maby some apricot. Taste: Very strong alc, but balanced good by the malt and a underlying hop bitteness. Low carbonation. A little to sweet but still a god beer.

Blom (802) - Odense, DENMARK - JUN 19, 2009
Amber-red. A heavy dobbelbock, very fruity and with a stong malt base. There’s a bit too much alcohol in the long run,though and it gets too sweet, like raisin juice.

stobbe74 (3163) - DENMARK - JUN 15, 2009
Sampled at DØE Beerfestival 2007, Valby. Pours a dark ambercolored beer with an offwhite head. The aroma is malty with toffee and chocolate. The flavor follows the nose with little citric. The palate is rich with a long finish. Overall a good beer.
