Dogbrick (2166), Columbus, Ohio, USA Mar 2, 2008 Sample at the brewpub. Pours a dark brownish-orange color with a thin dark beige head that dissipates slowly. Patches of lacing on the glass. Sweet toasted malt and caramel in the nose, along with a touch of almond. Medium-bodied with bready malt, caramel and hops flavors. The finish is moderately sweet with a malty aftertaste. Above average overall. miketd (330), Cleveland, Ohio, USA Feb 7, 2008 Growler from drmatt. Pours a bubbly brownish/auburn with a decent beige head. Smells sweet...candy sugar and a bit fruity. Flavor is sweet with a hint of bitterness. Medium bodied and highly carbonated. This seems very one dimensional. vyvvy (1582), Hazelwood, Missouri, USA Jan 26, 2008 Pours bronze with a small off white head. The aroma is faint - slight caramel is there. Medium / thin mouthfeel with semi-sharp carbonation. Taste has caramel malt, but none of the biscuit that is with many doppels. There is also some medicinal and mineral notes. Not bad, but not worth seeking out. xmarcnolanx (574), Kirkwood, Missouri, USA Jan 20, 2008 Grainy, slight sweetness in taste. Poured golden brown with almost no head whatsoever. Lacks any hints of smokiness. Just average in every way thegreenrooster (1447), St.louis, Missouri, USA Sep 16, 2006 Pour is a dark brown with a thin tan head. Aroma is malts with coffee and some hops showing up. Flavor is great! Lots of coffee and toffee a with a bit of dark fruit. One of the better dopplebocks i have had, at least made in this country. Hop in the city 2006.
