Oct 20, 2007 Bottle. Looks like a good grade b maple syrup with a tan head, medium sized. Aroma is a tad mellower and maybe earthier than your typical doppelbock. Almost porter-esque in taste, with coffee, chocolate and maybe some root beer. Nice job.

Oct 16, 2007 Final sample of the day as part of the BJCP training session. Just not my thing, these doppelbocks, for the most part. Deep copper, OK head. Sweet malt aroma, with lightly grassy hops coming through faintly. Flavor matches.

Sep 30, 2007 Bottle from BOE 29-09-07 Poured dark amber as description states with a tan head. Aroma not striking but there were some dark molasses. Taste initially was of black treacle and alcohol this tasted a bit rough around the edges some prunes, fine beer but not the best of this style.

Sep 23, 2007 Updated: Sep 24, 2007Translucent deep brown pour with a satisfactory, creamy head. The nose notes white sugar, raisans, plum, brown sugar. The body is full, with lots of residual sugar. Notes of cinnamon, candied plums, dark brown sugar and sugar cookie. I would like to see this attenuated a bit better, as the incredible sweetness makes it difficult to drink a lot of. Still good stuff.
