Blonde Doppelbock
Hi-Wire Brewing

16 ounce can, packaged 11/24/21, thanks again to Brutaltruth for this brew! Another brew I've had in the fridge for a while that I haven't gotten around to drinking until now. Served in a Teku-like glass, the beer pours a mostly clear with about an inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both decent enough. The brew smells like caramel, dried fruit, floral hops, bready malt and some honey. Taste is similar to the aroma, but there's also some grassiness and a hint of citrus flavor noticeable too. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's smooth and easy to drink with a low/moderate amount of carbonation. Good enough brew, but probably would have liked it more fresher.

 

From the 16 oz can in a snifter. This solid little doppel pours a medium
dark amber with a nice head of white foam that sizzles to a thin ring. Nose
of breaded malts / toast, honey malts, subtle floral hops, and caramel. Flavors
surpass the nose with a nice presentation of breaded malts, toast, biscuit, caramel,
honey, floral hops, and light grain notes. Nice mouth feel; medium body, smooth,
moderately sweet finish, and a breaded malt finish that is lightly dry and slightly hoppy.

Overall, a solid quencher.

Cheers

Appearance: Honey-colored and rather clear. Slim, snow white head.

Smell: Both bready and toasty with a sweetish honey foam fragrance and hint of oat milk.

Taste: Again, bready and toasty with its due sweetness. Vague hint of fruitskins. Slight oat accent. Appreciable but sensible alcohol quality throughout. Maybe a trifling touch of dried herb. Semi-dry, malty finish.
