Never had doppelbock before. First impression: Excellent. Fermented malts along with sugar cane to the nose. Dark amber in color with slight quickly dissipating head and not much lace. Flavor is rich on the malt(s) side with a very distinctive sweetness. Caramel, molasses, sugar cane offset by a very subtle saltiness. Velvety smooth mouthfeel.

Oct 9, 2008 Great aroma, it is almost enough just to smell this stuff. The appearance of this beer reminds me very much of Spaten Optimator. Not as fruity as Optimator, more "burnt" flavors on the tongue, nearly spicy. More complex than expected, every mouthful is a new delight. I really enjoyed this brew, I would go out of my way to find it if need be.

Oct 7, 2008 Love the colour of this beer...an invigorating burnt hazy brown-tinged orange sepia deep mahogany rose. Smell of malts, apricot, rum. Mouthfeel is smooth; almost creamy on the tongue and leaves a faint sweet tingle on the edge of the lips (in an almost pornographic sort of way). Taste falls intot he spectacular range with hints of ham, toffee, buttered carrots, brown sugar, caramel, spices, barley, and malt. Aftertaste is well rounded with some slight bitterness and cognac0like sweetness.

Oct 1, 2008 Dark amber body with a frothy tan and stable beige head. Mildly, buttery aroma of malt, fruity yeast, moderated hop, caramel. Complex flavor, smooth mouthfeel with caramel, sweet and fruity malt and nice bottom fermentation. Well balanced, roasty and liqueric aftertaste.

Sep 30, 2008 Dark orange. Very sweet, malty and syrupy. Butter, caramel, chocolate. First thing that popped into my head was ’tootsie roll’, and I feel thats pretty accurate. Delicious, but very sweet
