Andechser Doppelbock Dunkel

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

Rated Oct. 2011. 50cl bottle pours out clear deep ruby red amber with copper edges and a nice minute long tan head. The aroma is on the light side with some caramel and dark fruity esters mixing with a faint winter spice / fruit cake sort of thing. The taste is lush and soft and slushy on the palate and offers up caramel malts, wafer thin ribbons of caramel candy, chunky yet brown sugar simmered cherry bits, raisins and prunes. This all comes together very nicely. Yeah, I can drink more of this anytime.

Poured out a very dark brown color with just a wisp of a head. The aroma is very faint I can’t smell much. The mouthfeel is on the edge of thick. The taste is very good and interesting.

Pours clear mahogany with a thick and fairly persistent buff head. Aroma yields caramel, roast malt and fruity tones, pomme with a bit of dark fruit. Flavor delivers roast malt, caramel, woody hops, and a fruity underpinning of apple and dark fruit - and just a whisper of semi-sweet chocolate. Mouthfeel presents firm, smooth body and jazzy fizz. Doppel your dunkel, doppel your fun!

A bold amber colored beer with a three fingered frothy textured, off white head rising above. A small ringlet is left shortly thereafter. Caramel malt, fruit profile dominate in the nose and tasting. Full bodied and slick.

Clear dark ruby with lasting brown foam head lacing to glass. Aroma is sweet caramel, same like taste. A bock beer available all year and a nice one too. Short bittersweet aftertaste. (Velp 201210)

Trying this one tonight with a bad cold...me, not the beer. I havent a clue about the aroma, but trust my friends on that score. My bottle is 'youngish' .. the best date is Aug 2011.. The pour is reddish amber, the head is full of bubbles and nothing else. it went away quickly. But I really like the flavor, even tho Im under the weather. the alcohol content seems so blanced, with a nice fire in the tummy, yet no fire in the mouth..only a rich smoky complexity that I love . I want to try it at the source, as pfoxy did. I am sure it would be wonderful. I recommend this one highly!

500 ml bottle. Poured a clear mahogany or ruby brown colored Bock with a threee fingers tan creamy foamy head that had a very long retention and tons of micro bubbles. Active carbonation. Good lacing. The aroma is strong roasted and caramel malts, dark riped fruits, berries, plums, dried fruits, raisins, nuts. The flavour is heavy roasted malts, toffee, coffee, molasses, dark riped fruits, raisins, vinous notes, spicy, licorice. The mouthfeel is although sweety yet very smooth and a bit syrupy. This full bodied Doppel Bock has a lingering fruity and slight bitter finish. A drink brewed by the monks for God or the humans ?
