Jan 7, 2007 A nice a fruity doppelbock with a hint of caramel and malt. The scary man on the label looks like he is hypnotizing me to give this a higher rating...my complaint with this beer is the heavy carbonation. Sorry old guy with horns..you are very good but not great. Please don’t eat my children.

Jan 4, 2007 Bottle. Fruity nose is dry, bready, and malty, light yeast and low hops, caramel with some earthiness. Pour is an amber gradient with no head. Full body, bit of a harsh mf, not quite oily, taste is fruity, dry and earthy with light bitterness and slightly high hop rates to complement the carb rates. Disappointing.

Jan 3, 2007 Bottle (Courtesy of Adrian910ss): Poured a clear dark brown color beer with a small brown foamy head with minimal retention. Aroma of sweet malt with some dry figs and plums is very enjoyable. Taste is very sweet with good caramel malt and some dry figs and plums. I thought this was closer to a BW then a doppelbock though; I could not detect any of the banana or cloves characteristics that I usually associate with the style. Body is about average with medium carbonation and alcohol is well hidden.

Dec 26, 2006 Bottle at Brickskeller, Washington DC, July 2006. Attractive burnished bronze colour, with a fluffy head. Strong, sweet malt aroma. More of the same on the palate, with lots of caramel. A bit sticky for my palate, but I’m not a big fan of Doppelbocks anyway..

Dec 18, 2006 Copper with minimal head. Syrupy sweet alcohol aroma. Delicate caramel alcohol flavour makes for a pleasant drink.

Dec 15, 2006 I would classify this one as a strong par beer. There are some highs with, of course, the malt and sweetness, however, there seems to be something missing in the body. A little watery maybe? Clear alcohol presence, too.
