Drunk from a snifter at BrauKunstLive! 2013 Festival. The real WOW WOW was their Doppelbock. It was super süffig (drinkable)! Silky chocolate mixed with vanilla, with some pear or another fruit we couldn’t place. At 8.5% if felt strong in flavor but hid the alcohol bite well, a sign of a master brewer at work, IMO. I can see why this beer won the European Gold Star. On their site they call it the
"Mastrobator"

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle, with many thanks to Quack-Duck. Nice hazelnut colour and very nice, fruity aroma. Like a cocktail of cherries, pears and apples embedded in caramel malt. A bit reminiscent of barley wines. Full bodied with a decisively fruity flavour. Soft and malty beginning with a slightly astringent, nutty and chocolatey, warming finish. Very harmonious, pleasant beer. The best doppelbock I’ve had this far.
