beerguy101 (3861), Newark, California, USA Feb 25, 2005 Medium amber color. Large sized white foamy head. Aroma is caramel and sweet touch of brown sugar. A medium bodied dopplebock. Malts are fruity and sweet. Lots of brown sugar and molasses. Lot of dark fruit flavors as well. Somewhat sweet. Smooth tasting. Perhaps a little thin. Its not a big dopplebock like Celebrator, but its very drinkable and might be a good alternative for those who find Celebrator too big. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet and fruity. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet and fruity. noelcb (271), Toledo, Ohio, USA Feb 23, 2005 Dark pour, huge thick creamy head. Well-balanced aroma and taste. Aromas of rust, earth and rich malt. Flavor includes peat, malt, grain, and perfectly-balanced hops. Mouth feel is chewy, full and foamy. Overall this dopplebock is very balanced and very drinkable. A great example. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Feb 15, 2005 Solid doppelbock. Poured slightly thick, deep, impenetrable red-brown. 1/4" off-white, foamy head. Smells acidic and syrupy, and of pepper and molasses with rich malty nodes. Tastes better than smell. Holy malts. Chocolatey, roasted oak. Slightly smoky, like a persistent roast. Smooth, sweet and true to style. Well done, Tucher, but what the hell does "Bajuvator" mean? Styles (1653), Lincoln Park, Michigan, USA Feb 1, 2005 Pours brown with little head that fades fast. Decnt sweet sugary malt aroma. Flavor has some grape/prune and not much else. Very thin for a doppel. 11026 (1799), Alabama, USA Jan 27, 2005 Bottle. Deep brown and caramel color, perhaps some red colors. Off-white head. Decent lacing. Sweetish aromas of burnt sugar or molasses. A little fruit. Sweet taste. A little light on body. Overall fairly decent. Zach Diesel (907), Portland, Oregon, USA Jan 27, 2005 sweet caramel aroma, ruby/dark brown, nice alcohol bite, slight chocolate notes, caramelly slightly peaty and not overly sweet beerbuzzmontreal (2909), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Jan 3, 2005 Clear brown color with a very thin head. Aroma of soy and malt. Flavor of soy and malt, it’s also sweet. Light body, liquorous texture, soft carbonation. Weird and disapointing. tiggmtl (4307), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Jan 3, 2005 Soya sauce sweetness with some nuttiness and a chalky feel to the aroma. Clear mahogany brown with off-white/tan head that recedes to ring. Somewhat chalky flavour is lightly roasty and salty with a mild raisin character and a lasting sweetness in the finish. Medium-light body has a fairly thin mouthfeel despite fair carbonation. Bottle enjoyed with beerbuzzmontreal, lubiere, MartinT and Rastacouere. Thanks, Degarth!
