Bierkrug (235), Idar-Oberstein (in Pakistan), Germany Aug 7, 2009 330 ML bottle in the USA. Great dark color with no head at all. Deep malty aroma, I had to keep smelling it to get the true picture of it. Complex pallet and able to stand up to the European Doppels. ehhdayton (1113), USA Aug 4, 2009 Pours a dark amber with a small head. Aromas are caramel and toasted malt. Flavors are toffee, toasted malt, and the barest hint of hops. DragonStout (1380), Pataskala, Ohio, USA Aug 2, 2009 Poured a nice dark amber color.The nose was malty with sweet caramel.Flavor was mild with hints of caramel and toffee.A very nice version of a doppelbock. BeerVirgin72 (778), Pataskala, Ohio, USA Aug 2, 2009 Bottle from Winking Lizard. Pour was a nice amber/red color. NO head whatsoever. Nice malty aroma. Flavor was warm, bready and sweet. I really enjoyed this beer and have yet to find a Doppelbock I didnt like. I did find myself talking about this beer with a Austrian Arnold Schwarznegger accent..."I am the Troegenator, and I’ll be bock!!!" rcweir (119), Massachusetts, USA Jul 30, 2009 Dark cranberry red pour from 12 oz bottle. Thin head, nicelacing. Carmel notes dominate somewhat one dimensional tastesal

shigadeyo (2210), Harrison, Ohio, USA Jul 29, 2009 9/04/2008: Troegenator has a grainy, watery manure-like aroma that has some generic beer maltiness but is quite weak overall. This beer is sweet, roasty, and malt with that typical Germal Doppelbock-like character and some slight tobacco. This beer has a transparent borwn color and a carmelized beige-colored head and decent lacing. It is medium to medium-full in body and is slightly syrupy. Overall is has a solid Doppelbock flavor and is good, but not great.
12 fl. oz. bottle (8.2 alc/vol). Rating #596 for this beer.
jjuf1853 (467), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA Jul 25, 2009 Bottle, pours a dark reddish amber color with a beige head. Aroma has lots of rich and sweet malt characteristics. Flavor has notes of dried fruit, raisins, spices, caramel, and roasted malts. Slight bitterness in the aftertaste. The 8.2% is fairly hidden. Cybercat (778), Georgia, USA Jul 22, 2009 Pours a clear, dark coppery-red with a fairly thick but not persistent off-white head. Aroma is malty and subtly yeasty but not strong - inviting nonetheless. Flavor is better than the aroma suggested - strong, malty, mouth-filling with hints of hops and caramel. Texture is fairly smooth and just a little tingly, leaving a slightly bitter aftertaste.
