Millstream Cabin Fever Doppelbock

The Millstream Brewing Company is in Amana, Iowa and has been brewing since the mid-1980's.  This beer pours a deep brown, with ruby and garnet tints.  There is a quarter to half inch of creamy foam, light brown in color.  The aroma is deeply and richly malty, dark roasted, caramel, sweet and a bit creamy.  The taste follows the aromas quite directly, dark roasted enough to give some light mocha coffee notes, with lots of malt and caramel.  This beer drinks smooth and creamy.  This is a very nice doppelbock.  Too many of them are overly sweet, even cloying.  This one is richly malty and sweet, but still well balanced.
