David brewed a Weihnachtsbockbier because he wanted to see how many letters of the alphabet would fit on a bottle. This one enters the glass deep honey brown with a crimson hue. The rocky tan head emits dried berry, plum, and caramel malt aromas. The medium-full mouthfeel delivers plum and dried fruit flavors first, followed by toffee, caramel, and mild roasty notes. My Turn: David finishes semi-crisp with lingering dried fruit and caramel. Grab one and stuff some stockings.
Like its Doppelbock cousin, My Turn: David is "liquid bread", and will pair well with a thick slice of aged Swiss or Gruyére cheese. The festive holiday flavors of roast game bird, like goose or duck, will accent this beer's caramel malts, too.
