Nr. 299, Danke an Auxburg1986 für diesen Doppelbock! Die Flasche ist sehr schön gestaltet! Der erste Schluck ist zuckrig süß, danach malzig-kaffeeähnlich, von circa Mitte an, einfach nur noch malzig-zuckrig süß und bitter. Fazit: Vielfältiger Bock aber trotzdem durchgehend (auf unterschiedliche Arten) süß, ok! Test vom 1.3.2009, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,8,8,10,13,10 - 9,45

Koelschtrinker (6544) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 3, 2011
Recht herber Antrunk, der Aber noch der Röstigkeit untersteht. Diese wiederum ist eingebettet in eine dunkle Schokoladigkeit. Dieses bereits im Antrunk vorhandene harmonische Gesantkonzept breitet sich im Mittelteil aus, hier ist besonders das Malz zu nennen. Die weiterhin herbe Schokoladennote wird auf der einen Seite intensiver, sprich röstiger und würziger, auf der anderen Seite aber auch trockener. Trotz der Intensität mach das Bier einen geradezu gefährlich süffigen Eindruck. Im Nacgheschmack bleibt das Malz noch lange, das Getriede kommt hier aber deutlicher zum Vorschein. Süßlicher als zuvor, wasdieSüffigkeit unterstreicht. Sehr gut! 10/12/12/13/12/13

darkseduction (345) - Zweibrücken, GERMANY - MAY 24, 2011
Bottle 33cl. Red-brown, clear filtered brew with small off-white head. Roasted malts, fudge, caramel, chocolate in the nose. Malty grainy taste, hoppy dryness, but not harsh at all. Just the right malty sweetness to keep it quaffable. A fine tuned Doppelbock and thus so easy to drink, Great stuff!

Buronator hits all the right places, pouring a deep chestnut brown with a frothy beige head. Lacks some head retention. Riddled with caramel, the nose also shows molasses, slight mint and some mustiness. Deep and sweet, this beer drinks lighter than its 7.5%. Full bodied but with a lightness to the finish, somewhat active carbonation in the finish does a good job of scraping off the excess malt, allowing a bit of hop character to surface in the otherwise malty finish. A fine dopplebock in the ancient tradition.

Good abbey doppelbock. It is a classic malty doppelbock with a subtle but noticeable hop balance.

villy83 (262) - Sausalito, California, USA - FEB 27, 2011
33 cl bottle from a specialized retailer in Barcelona. It pours an unclear dark amber-brownish liquid with small beige head that dissipates quickly; no lacing. The aroma is strongly malty, with licorice, coffee, caramel, brandy and also a hint of banana from the yeast. It tastes likewise, with medium sweetness and medium bitterness. Full bodied, it has the watery feeling of bocks but does not spoil the brew. Subtle and smart carbonation, nice aftertaste. Good one to try; it is not every day that you come across a doppelbock. Very nice bottle and standard Aktien crown cap.

Deep, clear ruby black color/ tan head. Nice chocolate, nutty, toasted wheat bread, lagered aromas. smooth mouthfeel. Good multi grain dark bread, molasses, nutty flavors with some dark fruit. Great double bock

A: The pour is a slightly muddy mahogany color with very minimal head formation and carbonation. S: What a nose on this beer! Plenty of yeasty esters providing banana and clove notes. There’s also a nice fruitiness to it as well as a nice caramel, toffee, and chocolate sweetness. T: The beer is pleasantly sweet with flavors of caramel, toffee, chocolate, and some cola. As the beer warms up, the yeast flavors really come out, especially the bananas. M: A medium to full bodied beer with somewhat minimal carbonation. D: A really fantastic doppelbock. Quite complex and deep both in flavors and aromas--great all around.
