Düll Krautheimer Heller Bock

Düll Krautheimer Heller Bock is a richly malty fruity example of the style their signature white pepper in both the nose and palate but it blends in better than in their even richer Dunkler Doppelbock. It's quite dry even at 7.2%.

Düll Krautheimer Dunkler Doppelbock

Düll Krautheimer Dunkler Doppelbock is a richly malty example of the style with dried fruit in both the nose and palate. Their signature white pepper element doesn't play so well with this particular beer but the lingering finish isn't overly cloying, even at 7.8%.

Kesselring Urfränkisches Doppelbock

Kesselring Urfränkisches Doppelbock is uncharacteristically deep golden but a wonderful mix of rich malt and underlying hops. It's got some honey in the nose and the palate is fruity and surprisingly dry for 7.5%.
