Top 10 Doppelbock Lagers Brewed in USA
The best Doppelbocks have a malty sweetness that is dominant but should not be cloying. Malt character is more reminiscent of fresh and lightly toasted Munich-style malt; more so than caramel or toffee malt character. Some elements of caramel and toffee can be evident and contribute to complexity, but the predominant malt character is an expression of toasted barley malt. Doppelbocks are full bodied and deep amber to dark brown in color. ABV: 6.5% – 8.0%. IBU: 17-27
