Tonight's beer:
Opens deeply toasty-sweet: toffee and nuts, caramel, toast, traces of molasses. Dark bread looms nearby, maybe threads of vanilla or dark and candied/dried fruit. Earthy-grassy bitterness flickers around the edges. Slides slowly toward gently dry through the finish.
Thick, bready-chewy, nicely-carbonated; lingering stickiness. Impressively smooth. Coating, eventually softly drying and tending a bit to refreshing. Filling and subtly warming.
A delicious and spot-on doppelbock, from a brewery with more than one small clue about the style. Seriously intense, bogglingly complex; kinda malt-focused but pretty close to balanced, gloriously well-integrated. Drinkable as hell, wonderfully graceful. A welcome find when I'm looking or beers close to Xmas.
