4.1 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 wildbeercat (121) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - APR 21, 2013
12 fl oz / 355mL bottle into a pint glass. Served cool.
Aroma: Hazelnut, cocoa, basically this smells like Ferrero Rochers smell. Awesome stuff!
Appearance: Translucent red/orange. Even with an aggressive pour, no real head.
Taste: Hazelnut, coffee, dark, dark chocolate. Some fruit. A mild soy sauce-y flavor. Bittersweet.
Palate: Rich. Medium body; nice presence, but not oppressive. Flavors linger a little bit.
Overall: A lot better than what I was expecting! Really nice aroma and flavors going on here; not your typical caramel-y / malty doppelbock. The 8% abv creeps up on you! Really enjoyed this one.

2nd bottle at the Circle D. Pours a clear amber with minimal head that quickly dissipates. Prominent roasted malt and mild caramel notes. A little boozy. Moderate carbonation, medium bodied. Mildly sweet up front with mild bitterness in the finish. Pretty good dopplebock.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Caytinator (577) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - MAR 20, 2013
12oz bottle. Dark copper color, clear, small head. Telltale doppelbock aroma, astringent, rich, complex. Still doesn’t beat my "Paulaner Salvator", primarily because it’s a little too bitter, and it’s not warm enough despite the high alcohol content. Alcoholic, toffee, malty, slightly sweet. Beginning taste is very good, but the aftertaste isn’t awesome. Decent, though...I’m partial to this style.

18 mar 2013, bottle. Light orange, clear, steady bubbles. Nose is copper malt, wet bread, alcohol. Thin/med bodies and moderately fizzy. Bready and sugary maple syrup, some toast and dry malt powder.

12 ounce bottle. Thanks Dallas! Pours a darker reddish brown with a decent tan head. Aroma of malt, yeast, and caramel. Taste is malt, caramel, grain, dark fruits, and a bit of chocolate. Nice Dopplebock!
