Medium beige head gone quickly.. red/brown hazy colour.. smell sweet fruity.. taste some malts sweet bit of lemonny.. bottle shared by joel

Bottle, 500 ml, bought in Germany. Poured into a snifter glass. ABV 8.1% Light mahogany colour that turns to a beautiful red ruby when hold against the light on the body, clear and transparent. Nice two fingers tall, light beige head, with good retention. On the aroma chocolate, hints of vanilla, and a very appealing smell from the alcohol that makes it smell like a good brandy when you inhale deep. Taste follows the nose, albeit less intense, very tasty beer. Also, is this 8.1%?? I could never tell. Medium thin body, good carbonation. Nice dryness on the palate. Overall, a very tasty and drinkable doppelbock, really good.

Beautifully executed doppelbock. Dark amber with thin silky head, nice sourish malty aroma. taste is even richer with hints of caramel, toffee, butterscotch, malt, buttery smooth and soft lingering on the palate. A treasure to enjoy!

Bottled. Coppery colour with a frothy off-white head with good duration. Aroma is sweet, caramel, bready and alcoholic. Flavor has brown sugar notes, malty, toasty, sweet with a light bitterness, alcohol is present as well but very good compensated. The final is alcoholic with sugar notes and malty.

Bottle from Munich Airport supermarket. Dark brown body with medium head. Nose is roasted malts. Taste is caramel, roasty malts, coffee. Watery texture. Enjoyable.

Dense yellow head, vanishing quite fast, and very hazy brown/orange colour. Smells bread, malt, and little alcohol. Taste is not the usual sweet for a doppelbock, but it’s quite hoppy, of course smoky, roasted, but with a nice bitter finish. Low carbonation, and alcohol is present, but ok. A nice one in this gender, I liked it better than usual.

Bottle shared with McTapps. A nice Bock with a bit fruitness in the nose and bit alcohol in the end. Quite unspectacular but a nice and definitely brewed with love.

Deep dark amber / dark brown colour with low head and smooth body. Nose of rich malt. Taste of ripe grains, mild hops, nuts, caramel, torf, sour mash and malt. It tastes like a typical Doppelbock but isn’t as dull, boring and dusty as one. Easy and nice to drink but needs definately temperature.

Aroma muy suave, ligeramente dulce. sabor más bien alcohólico, sobre todo en el retrogustro. No me parece una doppel excesivamente reseñable. Hay mejores opciones, aunque se deja beber.

Bottle. Clear amber with a thin head. Aroma is dark fruity malt. Flavour is alco malt, fruity and dry bitter on the finish. Palate is very dry, bordering on sour.
