Bull City Regulator Doppelbock

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Dopplebock or double Bock in English, is a lager first brewed in Munich, Germany as a form of sustenance for monks at a time of fasting. The traditional style was a little sweet, and known as "liquid bread" with a higher alcohol content than regular bock. Very malty in style, crisp and clean tasting, showing a traditional auburn/ruby color and that hint of sweetness, a Dopplebock’s name usually ends in <-ator> to indicate the double style. In the tradition of great Dopples such as Celebrator, Salvator, and Optimator, we present our version called Regulator. Prior to the American Revolution, frontiersmen in what is now Durham were involved in the "War of Regulators." According to legend, Loyalist militia cut Cornwallis Road through this area in 1771 to quell the rebellion. Later, William Johnston, a local shopkeeper and farmer, forged Revolutionary ammunition, served in the Provincial Capital Congress in 1775, and helped underwrite Daniel Boone’s westward explorations. We remember and say Prost! to the Regulators with our Dopplebock.
