Shermanator is a big, malty, sweet lager finishing up around 8.3% ABV. From the Brewers Association doppelbock description: "rich, dark malt flavors with low hop bitterness and flavor, quite full-bodied, alcoholic strength is apparent, some fruitiness is noticeable." Historically, these bocks were brewed to sustain monks during their Lenten and Advent fasts, and for some reason in Germany the brewers named their doppelbocks with words ending in "-ator", like Salvator, Celebrator, Illuminator, or the local Troegenator from Troegs Brewery in Harrisburg. We named ours after our American Bulldog, Sherman, who I’ve nicknamed "The Shermanator" since he acts so big and tough and thinks he’s invincible.
