I don't think I like doppelbocks so there's that. I should stop buying them. I'll give this a 4 because I understand it's pretty good despite my not favoring the style. I'm a modern, rational guy and can admit such things. This was real sweet. Too sweet for me. If a woman tasted like this it'd be okay to me but not a beer. It's like when you make tea but put too much sugar in and you're already in the car so you just drink it but you're like tomorrow remember to put less sugar in. Had this out of a pint glass, after a Stone Espresso Imperial Stout. That's a beer for me. This tastes like something young people would like. I may be getting old.

This is one enormous beer, no lie, I am sort of regretting have 1L of doppelbock to drink right now.

This beer pours absolutely beautiful. It has a nice thick head that slowly fades to basically no head whatsoever.

The smell here is a little weird (as is the taste). I can't quite put my finger on it, but its almost sulphury and yeasty at the same time. I don't think its a sign of infection, I think that is just what their lager yeast is doing here.

Taste is very smooth with an all-malt backbone, no hop detection here at all.

I am glad I tried this beer, but it is NOT one I will buy again. There are just some weird smells and flavors here from whatever yeast strain they have used. Not nearly as good an example of the style as can be found out there.

500ml served in an Allagash glass

A - Dark brown with a tight cream cap. Solid ring with minimal lacing.

S - Raisins, old cherries, brown sugar, sweet brown bread, wood, faint toasted bananas, red figs, toasted graham crackers.

T - Fruity malt, cherries, red fig puree, dates, raisins, toasted brown bananas, cocoa, has a simple syrup sweetness with an old woody character to it. Roasted caramel/toffee malts adds depth with chocolate and bananas coming out more as it warms. Finishes with sweet dark malts, and s slight cocoa bitterness.

M - Medium body, semi-creamy feel, low to medium carbonation.

Complex flavors that let the fruity esters sing while the malts are bold but in a delicate way. Alcohol is undetectable and this drinks smooth. Perfect for an April evening.
