Tasting Lagunitas Doppel Weizen

The Doppel Weizen from Lagunitas Brewing Company is a Weizenbock with a little bit of a bite in my opinion. This 8.7% ABV and 47 IBU lager does bring some sweetness as expected, but is also does have a slight bit of hoppiness. Nothing overpowering, but it is detectable.
