(bottle) Clear, deep golden colour with a thick and slightly tanned foamy head. Sweet and biscuity caramel-malty aroma with subtle fruity notes of pine apples and ripe pears. Sweet flavour with a delicate and balancing level of bitterness, full bodied with a well-matured, creamy carbonation. Rich cara-malty taste with notes of biscuits and a tinge of honey and fruits, accompanied by a delicate herbal hops character, gaining more weight towards the sweet and slightly bitter finish with a lasting aftertaste and well-masked alcoholic notes. Very balanced and quaffable pale Doppelbock. 28.II.11
