On tap at the Herkimer. This beer arrives a clear amber-brown color. The head is a quarter inch in height, and recedes quickly into sparse lacing. The aroma is of cherries, smoke and toffee, but it is rather mild for a doppelbock. The taste is a bit fuller than the aroma, but still a little mild for the style. Even though it is on the lighter side what is there does have some nice complexity. There is a nice balance of moderate smoke, toffee and caramel malt, and a hint of cherry. The mouthfeel is medium-full bodied with moderate carbonation, and a smooth texture. Overall, this is a nice beer that I would drink again.

Serving type: on-tap
