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.

pours a very deep and dark ruby with a CREAMY BEIGE head. Aroma has lots of dark fruit- raisin, plum, and prune, along with a good malt character- brown sugar especially, and even a bit of alcohol in there as well. Flavor has tons of raisin and plum as the predominant flavors. Palate is quite smooth, with a beautiful but subtle alcohol bite at the end. Excellent double bock.

Beautiful dark garnet pour with creamy beige head. Aroma is plum, cherry, and overall dark fruit and nectar. Caramel, brown sugar and molasses come through in the malt character. Flavor is sweet and roasty. Lots of plum with the slightest alcohol coming through at the end. Palate is silky smooth and velvety. Very nice.

Bomber poured a clear reddish brown with a small lingering amber head. Aromas of carmel, molasses, prune and raisin. Palate was medium bodied and smooth with a dry finish. Flavors of carmel, cocoa, light molasses, grainy and earthy with a smooth dry lingering malty finish.

22oz bottle thanks to machfive55, man this beer brings me back. It was one of the first craft beers I ever had, and I liked it then as much as I like it now. Pours a deep riuby color with a medium white head. The aroma is sweet caramel malts, some light fruit and nuts. A nice flavor of rich caramel malts, toasted flavors, rich sweet fruit, light bready and yeast. Very full flavored and nice.

Overall Impression: A really nice, highly enjoyable Doppelbock. Lacking information for this rating, as I haven’t had one in a while, and would like to re-rate next time I drink one.

Wow!! I had this via a bottle from a local restaurant, then put a half barrel on tap in my kegorator. The aroma is a very malty, bready smell that makes you crave the beer as you would a home cooked meal. It pours a darker shade and has a thick off white head. Very thick and satisying beer if you enjoy a malty, sweeter beer.

Bottle from Captain Cougar. Thanks Tom! Pours a beautiful garnet with a temporary light tan head. The aroma is simply caramel. Rather full bodied with mild carbonation. Flavor is caramel with a light touch of hop, maybe. Finishes bready caramel. It’s not dry but it’s not sticky sweet either. A pretty good beer.
