Charkoota Rye - Smoked Doppelbock Lager
Charkoota Rye is a Smoked Rye Dopplebock. Charkoota Rye's malty backbone is derived from a blend of rye and four other malts, including malted barley smoked over cherry wood by our very own brewers, John and Jeff.
Its smoke-forward body is balanced with tones of deep mollasses and caramel, with a crisp, clean lager finish.
19° Plato, Alc. 7.75% by Vol.

Had this on draft a few years back. From my notes:
Brown/purple hue.
Small dark khaki head; minimal lace.
Smoked meat nose; heavy peat.
Medium mouthfeel.
Pastrami, smoke, peat, yeyo...a plum wine finish. Bold, complex & not for the weak of palate. Best New Holland I've ever had.

Found a 2011 vintage on the shelf at a local and it it really solid. The smoke flavor is subtle at first but finished with a strong presence. The rye comes through as the temp rises and is a very pleasant taste. Overall a great find.
