Feb 20, 2007 22oz bomber from Florian’s. Copper-red translucent body with a couple of inches of fluffy off-white head that leaves a fair bit of lacing and lasts quite a while. Smell is a bit light, but consists mostly of nuts and caramel. Tastes nutty, fruity, caramelly, with a trace of alcohol. Flavor kind of dulls after several sips, but returns as it warms. Smooth creamy mouthfeel. Fairly drinkable. Not bad.

Feb 12, 2007 Tap at Barcade: Pours an orangey brown, nice and heady. Deep sweet toffee malt aroma, doughy and some light cinnamon hints. Sticky body with loads of sweet bready maltyness. Some sour dough pretzel chewyness and a caramel sweetness. There’s a residual nutty dryness in the finish. A decent Doppelbock.

Feb 2, 2007 The color is nice, an orange red. Raisins, brown sugar, toffee, alcohol and a cough-syrup-like sweetness are among the many flavors oozing out of the palate.. The palate is oily and sticky but also bitter. This has a bit more hoppiness than I like in a doppelbock. It’s not one of the best I’ve had, and I had expected it would.
