Pours copper with a large, quickly fading head.
Aroma isn't exactly bold but shows some sweet bready and caramel malt. Not really clean either. Seems to have some grainy character. Later on some nutty and chocolate hints show through.
Flavours are more intense but also less precise. Caramel and nutty notes transfer through well but the rough grainy note is almost harsh and the alcohol is solvent-like.
Too much carbonation, but the body is nicely slick.

Burly garnet brown, rusty body with an orange edge glow. Small, creamy, light khaki head. Sweet dates, rum, dried bananas, cooked vegetables (candied kumara) on the nose. Tastes of toffee malt, sweetish, with dates, brown sugar, candied kumara. Some rummy alcohol. Nice. Minor, vegetal hop bitterness in an otherwise sweet, malty finish. Medium-bodied, oily feel. The only d-bock I had in NZ and it's not too bad.

Pretty crappy, thin sweet caramel, with some slight thin tinned fruit happening. Too sweet and light. For me, doppelbocks can be a bit hit and miss, this is clearly a miss. Harringtons can be good, but then, with beers like this, they can be a little dissapointing. Nelson Exclamator was a bit better than this one.
