Here is their description from the web site:
“This beer is a collaboration with Sherwood Brewing. They make my favorite hemp ale, and this collaboration uses toasted hemp seeds to add a nutty character that is slightly present in the finish.”
The nose has a nice toasted malt aroma. The body color is brown with some amber highlights. The head is tan and dissipates fairly quickly. Not much (some) on the lacing of the glass.
Since, this is called a Doppelbock, I am ready for some big malty sweetness with some chocolate. Being brown in color and not blackish let’s skip the chocolate. Well, it does not have a big sweet malty presence. Yes, the malts are sweet but, not overwhelming. I like this version with the hemp seed to give it a nutty character. Which makes me think this drinks more like a Nut Brown rather than a Doppelbock. The carbonation is mild-medium, which I like.
