Tröegs Troegenator Doublebock

Brewed by Tröegs Brewing Company
Style: Doppelbock
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania USA

Poured from a standard bottle into a pint glass. An earthy hops and spicy-sweet malt aroma, with some caramel. A clear, ruby-orange color with a smaller-sized foamy off-white head that had light retention. Taste is initially sweet and sugary, with some underlying sourness, and a slightly bitter finish with a light alcohol kick. Good carbonation and bite, with a warming finish, a thinner and more dry beer. Good brew for the winter with plenty of character.

Pretty amber with medium head. Caramel and fig or other dark fruit aroma. A little thin on the mouth but overall pretty drinkable.

Bottle, from trade with carny77. Great aroma. Fruity, yeasty. Apple, cardboard, caramel, minor bitter hops. Tad hazed dark orangy brown color, ok head that faded quickly, no lacing. Bitter sweet. Initial bite about it, then you get the fruitiness and caramel. Medium body, smooth creamy mouthfeel, sweet on the finish. Nice brew, really enjoyed the aroma, just kept sniffing it for minutes at a time.

12oz bottle, shared by pjweaver (my bro). Thanks, Phil! Pours a clear, deep amber-brown color; light tan head with fine-bubbled lacing. Pleasant amounts of dried fruits and caramel in the aroma. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: dried dark fruits, caramel, and plenty of sugar upfront; very sweet and a bit too singular in the malt character; minimal balancing bitterness. Medium, candy sugar and toasted malts in the finish.

12 ounce bottle with a drawing of a satyr on the label. A good looking brown brew with red highlights, and a nice head that diminishes quickly. The flavor is full, sweet, and malty, with dashes of caramel, bread, and figs. The hops and yeast are pretty light, but some alcohol harshness does show thru. It is soft on the palate with a pleasant aftertaste. This has some similarity to a Yankee dubbel. A fine beer.

This is a great Doublebock, truly a beer in the style, not to heavily hoped, the nice and rich aroma gets your mouth watering for the first sip. this is more drinkable than other darker doublebocks that i have had.

Pours a pure and clear ruby with a creamy head that dies eventually and laces. Smells of caramel and a mild bit of hops. Tastes creamy, vanilla, chocolate and a tid bit of hops at the end. Medium in the mouth with great carbonation. Drinkability is great. Could have a great sessionable day with these. Try it!

On tap... Nice doublebock. Hoppy, very drinkable, tasty... not much alcohol bite.
