DWestrick (175), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA Jan 22, 2008 Updated: Jun 27, 2008 The best doppelbock Fantastic flavor...best when served out of keg but still fantastic in a bottle. Pours a dark red color, distinctive taste (compared to other dopplebocks). World Class
First had at the Rathskeller in Indianapolis...changed beer drinking forever in my eyes. Use to drink Budlight and Miller light...never again
New update - built a kegerator with Optimator on tap (all the time) - What a life
hop_lover (140), Corpus Christi, Texas, USA Sep 4, 2008 Wow! This is amazing. The flavor realy blew me away. Just a great full bodied beer if I’m not in the mood for hops....which is very rare. k9coug (16), USA Sep 2, 2008 I’m not a big fan of the style, finding it much too sweet and lacking bitterness, but it is the style. This beer handles it’s 7% alcohol very well. It is well balanced with a lingering maltiness that becomes sweet. beerbill (1272), Laurel, New York, USA Sep 2, 2008 On tap at the Germany pavillion in Epcot. Pours brown with a moderate tan head that lasted through mid-glass. Pleasant, rich, malty aroma. The flavor is very rich malt with a bit of brown sugar and caramel. Light bitterness at the finish. Nearly full bodied with a well-rounded mouthfeel. Maybe it was the midday heat in Epcot, but I thoroughly enjoyed this beer and thought it was quite good! JuStuka (143), , Mexico Sep 1, 2008 Light brown color, aroma of toffee, grain, and slightly roasty, smooth, a real good doppelbock. Pershing (84), Garland, Texas, USA Sep 1, 2008 Rich and malty with an overpowering sweetness after the first sip. The roasted malt stands out with a nice hop balance. Ends with a smooth filling finish.
