Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Mar 15, 2008 (Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of yespr. Clear, warm chestnut brown with a small, rough, beige head. Aroma of roasted malt and burned caramel. Solid body with loads of roasted malts, dried fruit and some burned caramel. Very subdued bitterness. 140308 yespr (11645), Copenhagen O, Denmark Mar 14, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours cola brown with a fully diminished head. Spiced to light herbal malt aroma. Flavour holds a light metallic note to a solid malt base and a dry raisin to dried fruity flavour. Light fruity and mild nutty. Ends with a mild sweetness and a lingering malt base and light fruit note on top. Rynoplasty (500), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Mar 10, 2008 Pours deep brown with a medium sized cream colored head. Has a nice aroma of caramel malt. Taste is sweet and malty with some nice caramel flavor. A good doppelbock for sure. brewjester (3), Sterling Heights, Michigan, USA does not count Feb 21, 2008 Very malty, sweet, and caramelly tasting. The nose is all caramel and malt. Nicely balanced and an easy drinker for the 7.2%. Recomend to anyone who wants to try a dopplebock. CharlesDarwin (1822), Point Judith, Rhode Island, USA Feb 18, 2008 500mL Bottle. Thanks Sean! Husky unfermented grain, sourdough bread, and salt pork nose. Pours blood red on the side of mesquite. Tall foam, crisp in earth. Flavor is an overly sweet, mostly shallow pan caramel and toasted raisin bread. A touch tangy. Mild creaminess, gentle alcohols, and bland carbonation. Soft. Light nuttiness. Pretty predictable and bland. Finishes with a faintness sense of hops. DWestrick (234), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA Feb 10, 2008 Pretty decent dopplebock. Not as malty as I prefer but still good. Decent but not in the Optimator/Celebrator league Goodgrief (1144), Middletown, Delaware, USA Feb 10, 2008 Sept. 2006 - Beer poured dark cider brown, moderate head and little lacing. Flavor was dark fruits, some caramel with a touch of chocolate. Sweet, but not overly so. Mouthfeel was dry, but a tad thin. Enjoyable. cykyc (28), USA Jan 28, 2008 Creamy, strong, long-lasting palate. But, it reminds me more of a porter than the bocks which I’ve had. And, I just really don’t like porters. Everything else about the beer, from its aroma, appearance, and the aforementioned palate, were good, though.
