21/11 0.5 l bottle, thanks ogivlado for sharing! It poured clear copper to brownish colored body. Small, off-white head. Very sweet, cloying caramel plus honey aroma. Flavor was actually better than expected at the given moment, still sweet but less, slightly woody towards the end. Full sticky body of course, finish was longer. Pretty much OK and a quite typical doppelbock.

Bottle at Alquitara. 50cl bottle. Dark brown with a good formation of tan head, creamy and a perfect lasting. Aroma has toasty and caramel malts, nuts and sugar traces. Flavour is sweet, slightly caramel, dry fruits and a final slightly bittery. Dense on palate. Carbonation is low to medium. Body is medium to high Texture is oily.

(bottle) pours a clear ruby colour with a frothy off-white head. aroma of dark fruit, caramel, cornflakes and light toasted malt. flavour is mostly the same, lots of dark fruit, with notes of milk chocolate, coffee, raisins and a chewy, slightly bitter roasted-malty finish. heavy-bodied with average carbonation.

Bottled 500ml. -Brownish coloured, medium sized off-white head, dried fruits and caramel in the nose. Light roasted malt, caramel and dried fruits with mild nutty and alcohol notes. Pleasant doppelbock.

Croatian November ’11 tasting, Ogi’s. Poured a very very dark ruby body with a thick off white head. Sweet fruity nose, raisins, light dogfood... hmm... The taste, however, more than made up for that, lovely honeyish malty notes, balanced with some light bitterness, slightly creamy and roasty, very light raisins. No alcohol presence. A quality doppelbock, a bit simple but very effective - good job Einsiedler!

500ml Bottle (Thanks Omhper) - Dark brown with a foamy head. Fruity and malty aroma with notes of grain, dried fruit and marzipan. Sweet, fruity and slightly smoky taste with notes of raisins, fruit cake, marzipan and nuts. Easy to drink, especially for the strength. Some burnt toast in the finish.

Dark mahogany color. Mild caramel aroma, but nice. Quite good caramel flavor, with a good body, quite sweet, with chocolate. Low bitterness. Straight forward, but pleasant.

Malzig-süßer Duft mit rosinigen Beimengungen. Herb-malziger Antritt. Danach süßer mit Kaffee-Noten und trocken. Langsam meldet sich der Alkohol, welcher sich im Ausklang verstärkt und herbe Einflüsse aufweist. Ok.Test vom 23.4.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche

Das bronzefarbene Etikett zeigt 2 Böcke , die gerade miteinander kämpfen, darunter der Schriftzug "Doppel Bock - Das süffige Starkbier". Eine kräftige dunkle Farbe und eine stabile Schaumkrone bilden einen guten Anfang, den der Antrunk bestätigen kann. Der extrem würzige und malzige Geschmack lassen den Alkoholgehalt nicht merken. Im Mittelteil wir der Doppelbock ein wenig milder, bleibt aber dennoch herrlich würzig, ohne überdreht zu wirken. Der Nachgeschmack ist eigentlich genauso wie der Mittelteil, würzig und malzig. Er klingt mittellang aus. Test vom 5.12.2005, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 13,13,12,12,10,13 - 12,55

Bottle courtesy of Bierkrug - as always, thank you! Very nice beer! Sweet, burnt caramel, rich toffee. Smooth aftertaste with mild bitter. Not what I was expecting - really nice.
