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.

Ungstrup (26200) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - SEP 24, 2008
Bottled. A deep red beer with a nice tan head. The aroma is sweet with notes of both fresh and over ripe fruits as well as some cowberries. The flavor is sweet with notes of nuts, fresh and over ripe fruits, leading to a dry nutty finish where a note of alcohol comes along and leaves a slight burn in the throat and a warmth in the cheeks.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy reddish with a lacing tan head. Malty, slight note of overripe fruits into a light spiced and towards wineous aroma. Flavour is sharp malty, light spiced accent, berry fruity towards overripe fruit. Ends with a lingering malt note and a sweet flavour into the finish, only light fruity at this stage.

oh6gdx (18553) - 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.

fiulijn (12179) - Malmö, DENMARK - JUN 26, 2007
Dark amber color; big head; nice perlage. Beyond the sweet aroma of caramel, there is not much more. The taste is a bit more complex, with a lot of rather sweet caramel, some sweet liquorice, some malt traces; medium body thickness. Ordinary.
