Eisbock

I am doing some research on different beer styles for my new book and ran into one I haven't tried yet.  It is basically the same recipe as a Bock or a Dopplebock but they slowly freeze the beer and yank out the frozen water.  This gives the beer a lot of body, flavor, and alcohol.  I don't currently have the equipment to make one so I am looking for a good one to try.  Please make a recommendation for me.

Also, I think I will make a Bock or Dopplebock soon.  Here is the recipe I'm thinking of:
