Dopplerator

This beer will definately get you on the radar scope! The Dopplerator is a porter recipe with an increased extract recipe to heighten it to the level of a Dopplebock. This frosty beer has the dark sweet smell of a porter with an extra kick of mouth feel at the end. The light characteristics of the hopping brings a smoothness to the beer that most after-dinner beers desire. Smooth-Dark-refreshing
