On tap for a few months now at cb six. Very dark amber color with a sweet, earthy nose, hints of cocoa, plum... bread pudding. a delicious beer. crisp in taste with a sweet malty follow-up. The hops are secondary in this beer as they should be lending crispness and structure to the "silky slightly sweet center." I’m very pleased with this beer.

Jul 2, 2008 Draught. Pours a deep dark ruby reddish color with a thin white head. Aroma is very thick with tons of dark caramelized german malts- lots of sharp dark munich, with some fruitiness as well- figs, raisin, and other dried fruits. Good clean malt profile, doesnt have that big toasted bready malt profile, but rather goes a bit darker and is more caramelized nd sharp malts, with some leather, earth and wierd astringency at the end. Pretty good overall, yet different from many traditional german doppelbocks.

Jun 16, 2008 Sampled on tap at Great Lost Bear. Pours a clear brown color with a ring of light brown lace. Aroma of fruits and malt, there’s also a little something weird and unpleasant. Flavor of fruits, chocolate and malt. The body is light with an oily texture and moderate carbonation.

Jun 14, 2008 Odd tangy fruit aroma. Dark amber color with a light brown head. Sweet in the beginning with a sweet belgian yeast taste. slightly creamy palate.

Jun 11, 2008 Growler. Deep mahogony, clear, decent head and lace. Dark, bready, malty nose, hint of caramel and spice. Medium bodied at best, smooth malty flavors, sweet and bready, nice spicy, dry hoppy bite at the end. Well constructed brew, a bit subdued, could have more richness but not a bad gal to spend the night with, hell you might even stick around for breakfast....
