"Doppel"
means double and this beer is double in every way. Bayern Doppelbock
became an instant legend when Bayern introduced it in Missoula in December
of 1987. Unlike its top-fermenting counterparts, this hearty German
dark lager does not have the rough bite of a porter or a stout.
Bayern Doppelbock is dark, smooth and has plenty of hops (Saaz & Hallertauer
Perle) and malt. It has a starting gravity of >18 degrees
Plato (7.8 - 8.4% ABV). Bayern Doppelbock is available
in bottles and on draft from November through February, just in time
for the holidays and the coldest months. Please enjoy this festive beer
in moderation and leave your car at home if you are planning to celebrate
with Doppelbock.
