The Doppelbock style was first brewed by the monks of St. Francis of Paula in the 1600’s as a source of food to be consumed during Lent, when solid food was not permitted. It was literally considered to be liquid bread. In order to be considered a Doppelbock, the starting gravity must be at least 1.072. The color can range from a deep gold to dark brown. It will be full bodied and very malty with just enough hops to balance the intense sweetness.
