hopIQ found 10 beers with the same chocolate and bitter character as Nothelfer Fastenbock. A Doppelbock brewed for Lent, radiant ruby-brown under a creamy, fine-pored head. The nose moves between sugar-beet syrup, caramel and honeydew melon. On the palate sweet chocolate and dried-berry flavours dominate before a roasty malt bitterness and a long hop bitterness take over. For its strength it drinks lean and almost dry, with a creamy body. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
