Dubbelganger

◎ Aussehen

Dubbelganger presents a deep amber to brown hue with excellent clarity and a resilient off-white head that leaves distinct lacing on the glass. The carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, supporting a fine, persistent foam collar that speaks to proper conditioning.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced dried fruit notes—raisin and plum predominate—layered beneath caramel and toasted malt sweetness. There is no aggressive hop character; instead, a subtle warmth from the 7.5% alcohol emerges in the background, creating an inviting and balanced impression.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with caramel and dark fruit flavors anchoring the entry and mid-palate. The malt sweetness is pronounced but restrained by low bitterness (22 IBU), allowing the burnt caramel and dried fruit to develop without cloying. The finish remains clean and dry relative to the initial impression.

◑ Abgang

The finish is medium in length with lingering notes of dried fruit and subtle burnt caramel sweetness. A smooth, warming alcohol note rounds the aftertaste without harshness.
