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.

I dont know. It was alright. Nothing special, I wouldn’t buy a case of it, or doubtfully a six pack of it again if there is anyt options. Maybe not my style of beer

Bottle thanks to xproudfoot. Essentially clear orange-brown body, thin/medium cream head. Aroma of heavy toasts, brown sugar, and burnt notes; sweet. Interesting medicinal quality to the flavor, too light and sweet, also characterized by candy corn and toast, finishing with warming alcohol. I found the body too thin to carry the alcohol. However, this wasn’t half bad.

Dark copper pour with impressive white lace - rather light, bready aroma, with some caramel and fruity esters, mostly of cherry - a bit thin-bodied and lacking the malt complexity one would expect from this style - a little honey sweetness and a light spicy quality - decent, but not something I’d seek out again.

On tap at Max’s in Baltimore...Dark coppery-red body, with a small frothy head. The aroma is mild and malty, bready filled with yeast and a honeyed-sweetness. The flavor is also very malty, and chewy. The flavor is a little bit too thin, but its still a good, easy-to-drink beer.

In the Bottled version this was a rather decent example of the style if not a smaller one. The alcohol comes through in the nose as well as a bready Munich malt note. Wonderful color, the flavor was pleasent enough, not to complex though which is usual for this style. A rather light version on the palate but not bad at all!

The aroma is a little weak for the style, with caramel, toasted malt, cardboard, alcohol, and vanilla. The appearance is mahogany with a small head. The flavor is very nice. It has lots of caramel and nuts with light bitter finish. The palate is chewy. All I can say is wow; it’s a lot better than I expected.

Dark Body with off white head. A decent doppelbock. A better doppelbock is Ayinger Celebrator.
