Hops take a back seat to the rich and creamy body of this take on a traditional German style. Sweet, rich and dark ruby-black, this beer is creamy, yet smooth and malty, with a crisp finish that rules the double bock style.

STORY:

Fondly referred to by many as a “meal in a glass,” this centuries old brew is strong and contains a generous portion of malty goodness. Sweet, rich and dark ruby-black, this beer is creamy, yet smooth, with a crisp finish that is standard to the doppelbock style. If you are on the hunt for a hearty, malty recipe, don’t pass this German favorite up!

PROFILE:

This malt-forward German-style lager is much stronger than its lower alcohol cousin. Very malty with cascading layers of complexity balanced by traditional German hops. Rich and creamy with notes of toffee and baked bread, this doppelbock is a true representation of this style.

    Outstanding.... but an upgrade is....

    I get silly adding fruit from time to time and added a can of Boysenberry to the seasonal Doppelbock back in 2013. This created a little concoction that was dubbed Smurf Butt because one has you dancing around la la la la la la and the second has you on your butt. Later it was changed to Smerf Butt you know so Hollywood didn't come knocking on my door with a cease and desist order for using a copyrighted name...LOL. This is by far on the top of the list of brews when I do grilling.

    Waiting is difficult

    This was the base for my lenten ator style beer. Added 2 LME Robust and 2 of the new size booster. I also switched out Mt. Hood hops from the sent materials. The sample I tasted just prior to bottling was beyond my expectation. Due to the very long conditioning I used the OxB PET bottles. Now sleeping in a dark space at about 70º. Monks used this as their sole source of nourishment during lent. With one of these every day I expect sins to be forgiven. Will open on Fashingabend the day before Ash Wednesday! So far everything beats expectations!

    My husband's favorite

    Decided to make this after our trip to Munich and it is surprisingly very close to the brew we drank at Augustiner.
