Beers similar to Imperator

Doppelbock·Austria·8.2% ABV·One of 117 Doppelbocks in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Imperator's full-bodied and sweet character. A double bock in gold-orange: herbal aromas, a delicate scent of Kletzen (Austrian dried pears) and türkischer Honig rise from the glass. The entry shows fine, prickling carbonation, the honey sweetness is balanced by subtle hop tones, and the long finish warms gently. 8.2% and 28 IBU from 18.5 °P original gravity, with barley malt and Mühlviertel hops.
