ACBF 2008. This one was interesting. I liked it quite a bit. They did a good job of balancing the flavor of the doppelbock and the dry-hop addition, neither is overpowering, but the interplay is nice and enjoyable.

Their Triplebock rocked! Apple juicy look. And smell. And taste.Wheaty spicy notes with a light hoppiness to it.

On tap at the brewery. Dark amber with white head. Nice dough hits you first in the aroma with some interesting mint that could be hops, very malty. Big malt push with light bourbon, pine hop, very interesting. Creamy full body . Awesome hopped up doppelbock and barrel actually helps.

MBGF07. Murky, amber body with a small beige head. The aroma is apricot, cotton candy, caramel and floral. The flavor is moderately sweet, bready malts, toffee, citrus, herbal and banana. Medium body with a long, drying, bitter end.

Draft @ the Brewery. Had this one later on so it didn’t wow me, but still a good brew. Hazy amber coloring with a medium head. Aroma is rather hoppy to go along with typical bock smells. Flavor is rather heavily hopped - mostly citrus, which plays off the heavier malts well. Unique and tasty - hoping to try this one again.
