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.

Attractively dark, malty aroma, and carmelly sweet in flavor offset with nice bitterness. Well carbonated but pours with a short lived head. Good lacing remains clinging to the glass. Pleaseant moderately long lasting finish

Bottled. Clear, medium-brown color with a small, frothy, off-white, mostly and quickly diminishing head. The aroma was malty with a moderate note of roasted grain, light note of hoppy herb; moderate note of sherry, light note of vanilla and trace notes of spicy alchs and cola. The flavor was moderately sweet, moderately acidic and lightly bitter with a long, lightly bittersweet, lightly acidic finish. The body was medium, the texture was velvety and the carbonation was lively. Moderate alcoholic warmth in the finish.

Bottle. Head is mostly diminishing. Body is medium brown. Aroma is moderately malty (cookie, caramel, molasses), with note of plum. Flavor is moderately to heavily sweet, trace/lightly acidic, trace bitterness. Finish is moderately sweet, trace/lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Medium to full body, watery texture, lively carbonation, lightly alcoholic. Pleasant, straightforward.

Cork & Bottle Liquors, Baton Rouge, La. - 12 oz bottle. Light copper appearance, little to no head. Thin for a doppelbock. Sweet, molasses like aroma, some brown sugar and a trace of alcohol in the nose as well. Flavor is sweet, some cherries, some cotton candy. Turns slightly cloying as it warms though. Decently thick mouthfeel. Holds the 8.5% ABV well.

This beer poured much darker than the photo indicates. This 12oz bottle poured with a thick malty head. The mouthfeel was interesting, lighter than your usual doppelbock. Felt almost like a lager in that department. Flavor was of caramelish malts, almost like the complexity of a belgian. Finish was nice and of medium length.

Mmmhmm, very good beer. Sweet flavor, almost reminded me of apple juice. Malty and delish, give this one a try. Gotta get out to Harrisburg to visit this place.
