Tucher Bajuvator Doppelbock

Brewed by Tucher Bräu Fürth (Oetker Group)
Style: Doppelbock
Fürth, Mittelfranken/Bayern, Germany

Deep brown with burgundy highlights. Initial fluffy tan head, but thins quickly to just a few small whisps. Aroma of dark fruits, molasses and malt are quite prominent. Palate is a bit on the thin, watery side; but does present a fairly tasty malty bock flavor reminiscient of the aroma. Finish fades in a flash. Some warming alcohol noticed which was welcomed. Overall, a bit of a lighweight dopplebock.

Cola body topped by large tan head that mostly goes away. Aroma is sweet, brown sugar, caramel, slight burnt. Taste is quite sweet, caramel, prune, light alcohol. Watery medium-full body. Not bad, but not much to bring you back for more.

This poured a deep reddish-brown color with a respectable fizzy light brown head. Sweet malty aroma. It delivers a big mouthful of rich, sweet caramel malty flavors. Slides down the throat very smoothly and leaves you with a sticky sweet finish.

Brown with red highlights under a creamy off white head. Malty aroma. Flavor is malty and sweet but body is thin and somewhat lacking. Average Doppelbock.

Bottle at Andy’s. Dark brown in color with a fluffy tan head. Malty caramel aroma. Roasty. Taste is sweet and malty. I get raisins too. The alcohol is there, but its not overpowering. Enjoyable.

Dark brown with mahogany tints, medium off white head, almost tannish. Some lace. Caramel aromas with other sweet malts. Roast malts. Raisins. Light bittering hops. Hops are more prevelant in the flavor. The sweet caramel and roast are there as well as the raisins. Alcohol comes out. Heavy body, slightly chewy finishing out with sweet malts and alcohol.

(Bottle) Pours a cloudy brownish color with an average-sized creamy light brown head. Aromas of molasses, caramel, roasted nuts, and malt. Flavors of sweet caramel malt and cola. Long flavor duration.

From the bottle at Yeoman’s Road Pub in Tampa. Smells roasty and malty, Dark amber in color. Sweet sugared raisins and caramel with a little bit of alcohol in the finish. Not quite as lager feeling in the mouth as some Dopplebocks, Pretty decent.
