Clear reddish body with a thin tan head that left quickly. Smells of syrup and roasted cereal. Taste is thick of malt and a alcoholic bite. Earthy. No lacing. Palate is sticky and long lasting. Good doppel bock but not the best.

Bottle shared with Elena, ever so discreetly, at the Vienna airport. Pours clear, copper-caramel with a fluffy, foamy off-white head. Rich toasty, bready caramel malt aroma. Strong and sweet flavor with lots of caramel, light toast, bread, some booze, slight leafy bitterness. Full bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Warming finish with some boozy sting, caramel, slight dry and toasted malts, slight herbal and leafy bitterness. A heavy-duty beer overall. Very sweet but the alcohol definitely pokes through. Decent.

Rödbrun öl med livligt skum. Doftar mycket malt, sött och fruktigt. Mycket maltig smak med inslag av hasselnöt och torkad frukt.

Malziger, mehr aber deutlich süßer Antrunk. Im Ansatz durchaus würzig, dies wird aber nur wenig weiterverfolgt, so verläuft dieses Aroma im Mittelteil. Die Süße bleibt dagegen weitestgehend erhalten, wird aberzum Abgang hin deutlich schwächer. Im Hintergrund ist das Bier hier etwas stechend, der Alkohol ist erkannbar, aber gut versteckt. Etwas unausgereift, besonders im Nachgeschmack etwas schwach; insgesamt aber ordentlich. Vielen Dank an AUCBURG1986! Test vom 11.12.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,10,9,8,12,10 - 9,55

Bottle, best before 170810. Dark reddish brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma: sweet malt, raisins, just a tiny hint of buttered corn. Taste: raisins, dried fruit, warming alcohol, very malty, not exactly port I guess, but vinous. Full-bodied, almost moussy. Nice and warming.

Pours a dark chestnut-brown with a slight off-white head. Very nicely hidden alcohol and bit less malty and more bitter than similar doppelbocks. Very nice beer!

Light malty, sugary-sweet with alchol tones. Ruby brown with thin layer of off-white head. Roasty sweet and light alcohol.

Bottle 330ml. Color dark clear brown with medium brown head. Aroma caramel, alcohol. Taste caramel, honey, dark fruit.
