Sled Dog Doppelbock poured a reddish brown color with a pen
width, off white head. The nose has a big malty aroma, with dark fruit and a few boozy notes. The body is deep, smooth
with a full mouthfeel. It has tons of malt with hints of raisins and a strong sweetness covering a litle alcohol warmth.
There is a lot going on towards the end of the body and the sugar just dries out on the finish. Sled Dog's sweet
body tastes almost like a candyish Barleywine style ale. It is wonderful up front but the finish is a little muddy.
Overall, this is a solid beer for its style, but I probably could only have one.
