Sweet malty musky and a light medicinal cherry flavors. eh. JB175 (1654), Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 1, 2008 Darker brown with a sweet aroma of raisin, dark bread, brown sugar, and light spice. Flavor is big and sugary with lots of brown sugar, plums, raisins, and assorted dark fruits with more hops than usual for a Doppelbock. Good stuff. egajdzis (3602), Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 28, 2008 [Draft @ Capones] Poured a dark brown color with a thin light tan head that left no lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malts, dark fruits, and light cocoa. Taste of more roasted malts, sweet chocolate, molasses, raisins, and light alcohol in the finish. hopdog (5534), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 28, 2008 On tap. Poured a deeper amberish/ brown color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of nuts, caramel, and just all around malty. Tastes of nuts, brown sugar, caramel, and toffee, and doughy. Lacking left on the galss. FROTHINGSLOSH (1961), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 20, 2008 Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a lovely dark red-caramel color with a medium sized orange-tan head. The aroma was faint tangy and malty. The flavor was tangy, bitter and lightly fruity with notes of caramel, nut, cherry and vanilla. Well done.
austinpowers (2828), New York, New York, USA Feb 2, 2008 One of Otto’s best. On tap at brewpub. Really strong beer with lots of flavor. Rich, sweet. Very sweet. Thick. Delicious. Try this one. toddbates (95), USA Jan 27, 2008 Draft at otto’s. deep amber color with a light tan head that dissipates quickly after the pour. light malt and caramel with a little spice and a decent amount of hop definitely smelled of alcohol with a malty backnote. Braudog (3733), Dayton, Ohio, USA Jan 12, 2008 Draft glass at KClinger’s. Burnt amber with virtually no head. The aroma is of cooked brown sugar. Light up front, this predominately comes across wtih a cooked vegetable alcoholyness. Not a lot of body here and the alcohol takes on a bit of a funk as it warms. (#3280, 1/9/2008)
