Decimator Dopplebock
Upstream Brewing Company - Old Market

I wanted to see what Upstream was capable of making so I went for their highest proof beer available. It was strong but put a good chunk of the alcohol up front, not allowing much other flavor to come out. It's a reddish amber, lighter than other dopplebocks I've had. The aroma is faint with only a small amount of nutmeg. The taste has a bit caramel with nutmeg and cinnamon that are sidestepped by the alcohol which I thought was a bit much because it distracted so much from the other flavors. The bartender was kind enough to recommend a half-pint glass and that was a good thing because any more might have been too much.
