beer_name: Butthead Doppelbock
text: A- dark copper huge tan head. Good lacing. S- Big malty aroma with hints of caramel and chocolate. A nice doppelbock smell. T- This where things get ugly. It has the maltiness and the caramel and chocolate that i expect from a doppelbock, but man this one burns! I'm not sure why the alcohol isn't more well hidden. Sam Adams Double Bock and Kulmbacher Eisbock have more ABV yet they don't burn. M- Almost no carbonation which makes it quite syrupy, which is not a bad thing for some beers but it doesn't work here. D- Not very drinkable. The alcohol burn and lack of carbonation really ruins this otherwise nice doppelbock. I like high ABV beers but not this one. I give it high marks for appearance and smell because it deserves it but that's where the pleasantness ends. Maybe if they upped the CO2 and brought the ABV down to something in the 6.7-7.2% range the flavor might balance out and make a nice brew. I really don't get what's going on with this one as there are higher abv bocks that have excellent flavor.
