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.

Bottle. Clear amber in color with good sized head. The aroma was of sweet malts and milk. The tase was sweet and syrupy with too much caramel going on. Sugary and chewy. Not enough balance going on here.

12oz bottle via trade with MrBendo. Aroma: Rich maltiness with some brown sugar and fruit notes. Fruits smell of raisins and cherries. Light alcohol in the nose. Appearance: Deep copper in color and clear. Light beige head was full and creamy with good retention. Fair lacing. Flavor: Toasted malt and caramel. Grapes and cherries. Alcohol is present but not hot or unpleasant. Nice clean finish. Palate: Medium-full body. Medium carbonation. Alcohol warming in back and roof of mouth. Overall: Nice beer, but flavors could have been a little fuller/richer. Carbonation was close to being to high. All in all, a nice beer to relax with at the end of the day.

A reddish brown pour with a nice off white head that laces the glass. An aroma of bread emerges. Very smooth going down with a warming of the throat as the temperature increases. A very good beer from a very good brewery.

This is a hell of a good double bock from a fine brewer. Aroma is yeasty, bready. Ruby colored pour with an off white head....tons of lacing. Well balanced nutty and fruity malts. No hop aftertaste, but I don’t really expect it from this style.

Bottle. Pours a translucent deep amber with an off white head. Aroma of brown sugary malts and raisens. Medium light and fizzy mouthfeel. Initial flavor of raisens, maple, pumperknickel bread, and sugary caramel that transitions to a medium hop bitterness that carries through to the finish. Alcohol comes out on the finish and warms the windpipe. This is not bad at all. However, I think bottle conditioning and a little less filtering could take this one to the next level (not to sound like certain ratebeerians)

12 oz. bottle. Poured a deep amber with a small brownish white head. The aroma was very sweet. Nice mouthfeel. Sweet drinkable beer, not great but pretty good.

First Troegs i have ever tasted. my mouth enjoyed it. Poured a dark amber color with one finger head. very sweet flavor, very smooth... i hooked up with a hot italian brunette and afterwards i pacified her. Thankyou monastic brewers for brewing an extra strong doppelbock.
