Commercial Description:
For periods of fasting without solid foods, Monastic brewers relied on the double bock; a stronger, richer beer to fulfill their basic nutritional needs. Known to them as "liquid bread", a double bock has a strong malt aroma and chewy rich body. In the spirited tradition of naming a double bock in the suffix "ator," we give you Troegenator to provide warmth and richness through the early spring months.

12oz bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a tan head that disappears quickly and leaves little lacing. Smell of malts and toffee, some figs and honey. Taste has a burst of malts with slight hops, honey and toffee and citrus. Medium bodied with medium carbonation.

Looks like the picture, no need to explain. Lacing and retention are solid. Aroma is caramel, floral, lightly fruity and nutty. Medium bodied, quite quaffable.

On tap at Barleys Smokehouse. Pours a clear light brown with a half inch tan head. Nutty, malty aroma with a bit of hop. Flavor is a bit too sweet with a slight alcohol touch.

Bottle. Courtesy of Summer SS 08. Fermented barnyard aroma. Amber body with tan head. Sweet sticky cough syrup body texture. Alright for a dopplebock apparently palate is adjusting to this stlye. Way too sweet to begin with but what do I know.

Pours a deep amber with a thin tan head. Caramel, a little chocolate, and maybe some dark fruit. Strong malt presence without being overbearing. Pretty good.

22oz bottle (Witty’s Rahway)- Pours a ruby amber body with a nice off white head. Aroma of roased malt, caramel, toffee, and slight alcohol. Taste of the same with a nice sweetness on the back end. This medium bodied brew is quite drinkable and well balanced. Not a big fan of this style but this is pretty tasty.

draft at the brewkettle - Crystal clear ruby red color with nice creamy off white head. Aroma has ton of medium toasted caramel, cherry, oak, vanilla, touch of roastyness. Flavor is full of chewy malts, caramel, oak, slightly metallic note, with a fairly sweet finish, somewhat cloying. Overall decent, not amazing. Needed to attenuate a bit more and have a bit more bitterness, IMO.
