Bottle by 12.10.12. Nose is sweet caramel and roast, rich malt, more on the molasses than plum/grape side. Dark chestnut pour with ruby highlights and a sudsy light brown head (sort of ugly, truth be told). Taste is sickly sweet and sticky, lots of berry and fruit, raisins and brown sugar. Just super sweet, though. Good malt depth, medium body, just can’t really seem to enjoy it! Maybe for cooking?

Bottle. Caramel brown with a tan head. Sweet malty nose. Dried fruit derived sweetness. A nice dopplebock

Clear dark copper with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet, malty and dried fruit. Flavor is quite sweet and moderate bitter. Sweet finish. 121111

Bottle at Amundsen, Oslo. Lovely glowing ruby, beige head. Slow flowing, lazy bubbles. Not skimpy on the malt. Aroam of malt and raisins. Sweet, burned sugar, bitter background. A hint of yeast. Rich flavor, would be perfect with pork ribs or a ripe cheese.

Pours dark ruby red with a creamy, fine brown head. Smells like dark malts, very roasty and coffee-like, slightly aroma of licorice comes through. Starts very roasted malty, slightly sweet, intense coffee flavor. The middle part has some earthy-smoky flavors. Roasted coffee in the finish, subtly smoky / peaty, again, dominated by licorice flavor! Absolutely magnificent Doppelbock!!!

Fantastically rich and interesting beer. Very stong malty almost Marmite flavours. Balanced sweet and bitter taste. Cannot taste the relatively high alcohol. Really worth trying to find a bottle.

Bottle outside Frank, camper at Harbury Fields campsite, Harbury, Warwickshire 03.09.11 Pours dark brown with plenty of burnt toffee, burnt sugars dominate. Big malty full on beer. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.3

50cl bottle. Pours chestnut brown with a red hue. There is a decent head which reduces to a thin layer of lace. The nose has toffee and some malt.The taste is of chocolate, then apples, then chocolate again. The palate is medium to large in structure and texture then it finishes clean but with some alcohol burn. Overall, a really interesting beer.

Neglected to make notes on this one-apologies. Dark brown beer with plenty of malt backbone and medium palate. Easy to drink considering its ABV

Bottled. A dark brown cola coloured beer with a dissipating off-white head. a typically sweet strong doppelbock with great licorice notes. Molasses and cake. Some burnt malts. Totally enjoyable really good beer.
