I brewed my dopple alt this weekend with 15 pounds of Munich, 10 pounds Pilsner, 6 oz's of carafa special and 1 pound of Caravienne for a 10 gallon batch. I was really surprised how dark it turned out. My son gave me a couple of bottles of Uerige sticke dopple alt and it's very dark too, so maybe I'm not too far off.
