Commercial Description:
This award winning doppelbock (8.2% alcohol by volume) lager is brewed with a generous supply of Munich, carapils, caramel and chocolate malts and is fermented with Bavarian lager yeast. The resulting caramel sweetness and rich mouthfeel are complimented by the mild bittering of German Hallertau hops. 1997 Great American Beer Festival Silver Medal Winner

Bottle. Aroma has a somewhat vinegarish tang. Cloudy chestnut body, off-white head. Flavor is sweet and fruity, with notes of tangy orange and alcohol.

This poured a brownish color with an off white head. Aroma was very malty, hints of dark fruits and a bit nutty. Flavor was as tempting as the aroma, fairly smooth beer but not much stands out and does not hide the alcohol very well either.

Bottle. Poured an earthy brown pour with a small head. Very sweet aroma of dark fruit, chocolate and mild hops. Taste was lot sof sweet dark fruit with some stale hops in the background. Not great.
