3.82/5 rDev +5.5%
look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4
Look: Dark, crystal clear reddish brown mahogany with a light tan head that turns to fine lacing with a few large bubbles here and there
Smell: A darker brown bread, sort of sweet and honey/nut smell
Taste: Sweet again, but also like a toasty piece of bread, some fruit like plum, aged book (like the smell of aged book but on the tongue)... much like a tobacco flavor.
Feel: Moderately heavy, frothy on the tongue but still heavy even then. Somewhat slick mouthfeel
Overall: Good beer. Not great. But good. One you take your time on and enjoy the complexity.

A malty, caramel, thicker beer, with a little bite. Probably better in the winter because it has a little weight to it.
Taste Rating in Words: It's like putting a jacket on.

Poured from a can into a pint glass. Clear gold-brown color, no real head or lacing. Smell is sweet and ready. The tastes has a lot of caramel notes. Probably not one to repeat but not bad.

Bottle poured into a BarrelHouse Brewing Co pint glass
A: Pours rich mahogany with a frothy khaki head that settles to a light layer and leaves a little thin lacing.
S: Dark fruit, toffee, bready slightly toasty malt, and a touch of spice.
T: Dried fruit, raisins, dates, plums, and figs, big toffee sweetness, slightly toasty bready malt, nutty, and subtle spice.
M: Sticky full body, moderate carbonation.
O: A little sweet, but overall a pretty decent doppelbock.

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.25
Look: A copper - reddish color. Decent head retention. Only about a one-finger head. Very clear. 3.75
Smell: Almost no Aroma. Hints of German grains and yeast. Some caramel notes. 3.25
Taste: There’s some bite up front but not much. Sweet and malty. Caramel and tobacco. Some smokiness. Needs more hop bitterness. 3.25
Feel: Medium-llight. Thin. Slick. Flattens out quite a bit.
Overall: It's an ok beer. The flavor is decent, but is just seems pretty light / watered down. It is a higher ABV, but just seems weak and not powerful like many others.
Feel. Medium to light. Send slick and flattens out
Overall. It’s an okay beer

This beer pours a clear brown with an average head. The aroma offers up toffee, caramel, green apple, chocolate, white plum, and nutmeg. The flavor is very fruit - plum and raisin mainly - with chocolate, graham cracker, honey, banana and fig. The mouthfeel is soft and creamy with a medium body. Overall this is a delicious mix of fruity and chocolate tinged flavors - just a very easy to love beer.

Pours to a head that laces and lasts. Dark brown/ruby color. Aroma is delicious sweet malts (honey, nuts, molasses, toffee) no hops to discern. Flavor is malty and sweet. Tangy finish. Low bitterness and no distinguishing hop character. They are there but blend into the background. Feels great. Satisfyingly malty. Love this :)

At first smells a like a sweeter 211 type malt liquor. Then it tasted a bit chocolatey. But that subsides quickly and eventually just tastes like a spiffed up Hurricane. If you let it sit and breathe for a bit, the flavor comes back and then it comes out swinging tasting/smelling like a bolder Newcastle.
"I drank em all"
