Commercial Description:
A big malty lager brewed in the style of the doppelbock. Rich flavors and a deep red color highlight this complex cold weather favorite.

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.

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)

Draft at Otto’s. Deep coppery color with off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt, brown sugar, figs, some spices and hops. Tastes dark malty, with brown sugary notes, some nuts, figs, blackberries, and a rich, smooth finish. The blackberry notes don’t overtake the malt, which remains throughout in full force. Another well done brew from one of my favorite brewers of all time.

Growler courtesy of Nate. Pours dark amber, small, off white head that lingers. Nose of malt, very little from growler. Hops start with big malt middle, carmel and toffee, touch of biscuit, then a rather surprising hop finish that lingers with a nice aftertaste. Not bad, I’d have it again, but a little below my expections from Otto’s. Not much, but a little.
