Andech's Doppelbock Dunkel

Tonight's Beer:
Andech's Doppelbock Dunkel
7.1% ABV

The Andech's Doppelbock Dunkel is one of my favorite beers. And when I say 'one of,' I mean 'definitely a top 10, possibly a top 5.' I've not been shy in the past about my love of doppelbocks. While I generally sing the praises of Belgian beers, Germans certainly hit on something with the doppelbock style. And, of course, like the Weissbier Dunkel I reviewed last week, this beer was brewed by the Benedictine monks on Bavaria's holy mountain.

If you've ever brewed your own beer, the Doppelbock Dunkel has that same strong, sweet, delicious smell that fills your apartment when you're boiling your wort. If you've not brewed your own beer -- it's an incredibly smooth beer. The flavors of the malted grains flood the palate as the beer glides over your tongue. After you swallow, a caramelly deliciousness lingers behind. This is an amazing beer. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
