Description
ABV: 8.5% IBU: 75
BREWERY DESCRIPTION:
A darker and stronger, seasonal, variation of the traditional Düsseldorf Altbier. Invented by the Uerige Brewpub of Düsseldorf, it is brewed only twice a year and is ready for tapping on the third Tuesday in January and the third Tuesday in October, respectively. Since 2005, UERIGE has been brewing this special extra strong beer for the US market. Our DoppelSticke has an astonishing 8.5% abv and yet there's no mistaking its taste: Dat is dat leckere Dröppke, as they say 'that is the delicious droplet.'
After the 'gigantic herbal aroma of hops' (Michael Jackson) that surprises the palate at the first taste, aromatic sensations follow midway: caramelized sugar, malt and herbs, rich nuances of dark chocolate and rum, rounded off with a smooth and shimmering finish.
