Aug 4, 2007 Tasted 7/14/07. 12oz bottle. Filtered with a garnet hue. Quickly dissipating head, leaving a moldy bone white appearance. Citrus and raisin aromas. Vanilla, cookies and a touch musty. Compared to the previous Dopplebock, Capital Autumnal Fire, this one is more lively and drier. Bigger effervescence. Dry but with nice toasty malts. More bready malts. Grainy with a sweet cereal flavor. Bigger beer. More bitter but less alcohol prevalence. Bigger and sharper, but not necessarily better. Bigger palate, but not as well blended. Still nice but preferred the former.

Jul 29, 2007 Updated: Nov 12, 2007Pineapple and dates on the nose. Brown color, thick tan head. Sour taste of roasted malt and traces of yeast and molasses which isn’t altogether unpleasant. Cabbage finish, again, tastefully done. Alcohol content is well hidden. Unique and fairly good.

Jun 26, 2007 Wow, I had six of these, which was a bad idea. I got shitfaced and wow, it was great! Great malty flavor. Commercial description is great and right on the nose. Guess why it’s a commercial description.

Jun 13, 2007 Pours a light amber color with a small head and tiny lacing. The scent is carmel, raisins and malt. The flavor is malt, with some sweetness. The palate was a little weak and the mouthfeel was too thin for me. Not bad overall, but I would have liked a bit more complexity in the finish.

May 9, 2007 Bottle at Firewaters in Atlantic City. This brew pours a dark brownish-amber color with a thin off-white head that dissipates fairly fast. Spotty lacing throughout. Roasted malt aroma with hints of alcohol and raisins. Medium, smooth body with sweet malt and caramel flavors, accompanied by notes of hops here and there. The finish is on the sweet side with caramel and malt, followed by touches of hops and a bit of burning alcohol. Above average Doppelbock for my money.
