The Duck Rabbit (The Dark Beer Specialist) Duck Rabbator Lager Doppelbock. 8.5 % Alcohol by Volume. Farmville, North Carolina.
The duck-rabbit has grown goat horns on this one, and the -ator suffix is in play, as is traditional for a German-style doppelbock.
This one looks the part right away, a dark brown body, slimmed head, starts copious and drifts down.
Aroma: rich, sweet malty nose, toffee aplenty, caramel, molasses, nougat. Yeah, it's a liquid candy-bar, big, beefy, complex and full of character. That's just the nose, now, let's take it to the tasting.
Taste: Deep and rich, plump with dark, malty flavor. All that from the nose returns on the palate. It's a melted down tootsy roll rolling around in the mouth. Medium-bodied, with a long, sweet finish, inching towards dry. Fully-flavored, and rightfully delicious.
