Nov 6, 2009 Color brown-amber, with compact, beautiful and persistent head. The aroma is pleasant of toasted cereal and butter. The body is round, alcoholic and hoppy with a bitter end. The malt is absolute protagonist.

Nov 4, 2009 bottle - hazy amber brownish beer with almost no foam. Malty aroma with some hay and traces of caramel. Flavour is sweet and malty but has still bitterness, some honey. Alcoholic.

Oct 30, 2009 Poured from tap into half-liter mug.
Rich orange-red with thin head.
Aroma of strong caramel, toffee and dark fruits.
Caramel, toffee, plum, some spiciness but no noticeable hops. Tastes like a regular bock but with a slight alcohol taste.
Moderate carbonation, chewy heavy body.
Nice overall, but a basically a boozy bock.

Oct 26, 2009 Nice amber fizzy body and a diminishing fizzy head. In the aroma caramel and some fruitness is present. Then when i taste it, i was surprised because of the harsh alcohol, my tounge was numbed. I think a more thick body was expected from me. As you wait a bit, the caramel note becomes stronger and stronger.

Oct 22, 2009 Bottle; didn’t really like this one. The aroma was fantastic with fruit and caramel notes. But the taste with the high alcohol content and taste I did not enjoy. I prefered the Ayinger Celebrator much much more than this beer.

Oct 21, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy amber with a frothy white head that quickly goes to a thin film that leaves a little lacing.
The aroma is sweet caramel and toffee with some dark fruit and a little alcohol.
The flavor is sweet caramel and toffee and nuts with a little fruit leading to a lightly grassy bitterness in the finish. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.
Overall, a good example of a doppelbock. A little too much on the sweet side for me.

Oct 11, 2009 Pours cloudy dark brown, with a nice white head that laces out nicely. Very malty aroma with a hint of alcohol. Sweet, malty, smooth yet complex with a hint of hops on the finish. High in alcohol, yet it doesn’t show in the taste. My only complaint is this is a "knock your socks off" type of beer. Goes down smooth and after a couple...
