Duck-Rabbit is the clear leader in my 50 Beers from 50 States challenge with their excellent Milk Stout. Now comes news that they will be bottling a lager which is a stylistic departure for the North Carolina brewers.

Widmer Cherry Oak Dopplebock
As I have mentioned before, I am a sucker for special reserve series beers. Plus I am already a Widmer fan. So this is right up my alley.
Cherry Oak Doppelbock is a rich ale, cold-fermented with dark sweet and red tart cherries, then conditioned on new, heavily toasted American oak. The result is a dark lustrous brew with up-front malty sweetness and cherry fruit notes completed by caramel, dark chocolate, and toasted oak undertones. The complex flavor profile balances the impressive 9% ABV and 40 IBUs.
