Served at the right drinking temperature at EBF, Copenhagen 08. Russet body colour, tiny beige head. Sweet smell of malty nuttiness. Toffee in flavour with roastiness and welcoming hints of tart fruits. Smooth, vinous in the mouth. Pleasant, but in small amounts at the time (14.09.2008).

Sampled@EBF 2008. Cloudy dark amber, thin greyish head. Bready, light sweet caramellish malt aroma. Notes of unripe berries and earthy hops. Taste is sweet malty with a subtle bitterness. Some fruity tones. Medium body, soft carbonation. Dries up in the finish. A drinkable and quite unusual Dobbelbock

(On tap) Hazy dark amber golden with a rough off-white head. Very fruity nose. Quite full-bodied and a little low in carbonation. Sweetish and very fruity with a subdued bitterness. Nice and drinkable. 120908

Draught Thick amber-mango head; fully hazy brown-red beer. Bitterish, woody nose, some inke and certainly tannins. Very bitter-woody, quite severe beer, tannine extra bittering and not very noble-tasting Saaz... Dry-out effect like lambic, fully attenuated, no restsugars. Blue cheese in the aftertaste. Unusual Double Bock, not for the faint-hearted. Brewer confirmed our suspicion this one is top-fermented.

From tap. Pours hazy to murky brown with a lacing tan head. Yeasty and hoppy fruity aroma. Yeasty and hoppy with dry bitterness slowly emerging. Starts a bit on the sweet side though although that could come from the hops. Fruity and light phenolic finish. Nice and smooth yet also a bit rough.
