I like the body and flavor of this beer. I have been wanting to try this beer for months and finally found it and have not been let down. A very great tasting beer

Aroma- Strong malt aroma, modest toasty, minimal hops, no diacetyl, low fruity esters of prunes and dark fruit, moderate alcohol Appearance- Dark amber hue with orange highlights, good clarity, minimal off-white head quickly dissipates, minimal legs Flavors- Rich and thick caramel flavors, significant melanoidins and moderate toasty flavors, clean lager yeast, no diacetyl, light essence of dark fruits, light alcohol smoothness near the end, slight hop bitterness, sweet finish Mouthfeel- Full-bodied, moderate carbonation, very smooth texture Overall- The prototype doppelbock style, rich and sweet malts dominate throughout with a smooth and creamy texture, very clean and crisp flavors, easy-drinking as the alcohol is well masked behind the malt profile, no discernible flaws here

Aroma is sweet and fruity plus a hint of alcohol. Pours a clear dark copper color with a bubly head that disapears almost immediately. Taste is once again sweet and fruity; raisins, a bit of plum, plus some caramel and toffee. Finishes with a smooth, dry flavor of nuts and smoke. Smooth and very drinkable.

50cl bottle poured into a dimpled mug. Pours a beautiful amber brown with one finger tan head. Aroma is caramel, licorice, a bit of vanilla, and a hint of alcohol. Flavor is maple syrup, licorice, slight citrus, a bit of alcohol, and some hoppy bitterness in the end. Heavy and filling. Well balanced. A complex and interesting beer. Delicious.
