Tucher Bajuvator Doppelbock

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

Chocolaty/caramelly, but somehow made lopsided by the wheatiness.

Poured a dark brown with some red tint when held up to the light. The first thing I got was a noseful of malt. Quickly disappearing head and no lacing at all. Initial flavor is sweet malt folowed by dark fruits and then a slight hint of alcohol. A slight twang left on the front of the tongue and a slight dry feeling considering how sweet the malt flavor is in this beer.

extremely bready malts with a hair of alcohol in the nose. flavor has lots of caramel, brown sugar, and toffee. teh finish is pure brown sugar. there is an underlying roastiness in the finish as well. very surprised by this bad boy.

Pour is a nice looking red with a tan head. Aroma is malts,malts and more malts. Flavor is more of the same with a nice dark fruit aftertaste. Not the best rep of the style by a long shot but its pretty tasty and esy drinking. A plus to the brew is its low price , mine only cost $2 for a 18oz.

Very deep copper to opaque brown with a decent head that receded rapidly to just a bit of tan lace around the edge of the glass. Rich, malty nose with caramel, chocolate and mild roasted character and a definite alcoholic scent. Maybe just a bit of astringency and a slight phenolic background, but very malty and rich! Mouthfeel is full and finish is middlin’ sweet.

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. 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.

Deep mahogany pour into the glass, with a minimal offwhite head that leaves a fizzy ring and lace. The nose has banana and yeast notes (almost like a German hefe), with some sweet caramel in there, too. The flavors have some dark esters, lots of sweet malt, some Karo syrup and vanilla extract between the mid- and back-palates, a hint of plantain and some aerated sugars. ABV is integrated very well, with just a hint of warmth lingering on the mid-palate after the pull. Malty finish, semi-dry with a round mouthfeel and semi-lively carbo levels. A very decent doppelbock.
