Mmmmm...S'muttonator. This whalloping 9.8% dopplebock pours garnet tinged mohagany with beige foam and rim. Slightly dark chocolatey smokey with cherry juice and some graininess but this is mostly a big mellow malt bomb. A fine tobacco note from the heat and the twiggy hops. Rich and smooth with a drying finish from the tannic of the hops.
BAers approve. Smuttynose provides excellent notes on this one as they do all their big beer series.

Oh, yeah, this one's a winner. Just did a first tasting last night and will be posting the review at our site early next week. Looking forward to acquiring more :)
