12 oz bottle. The amber coloring is dark, almost so dark that it drifts out of amber and into just plain brown. Watery nose with a hint of roasted malt, but not much there. Taste is similar - not displeasing but the toasted malt flavor exists only as a very subtle undercurrent to the flavor. As expected, better than your average macro, but a macro nonetheless.

Mar 14, 2010 Bottle.
A - Amber/Deep redish brown. Slight head that disappears pretty fast.
S - Not much smell but some malt, that’s slightly toasted.
T - Slight sweetness from a caramel and toasted malt. Also a little nutty. Very slight hop flavor.
M - Medium body. Somewhat smooth and creamy.
D - Easy to drink, and fairly enjoyable for what it is.
Notes: This was something that I thought was a good beer when I first started. Seems like a good stepping stone beer.

Mar 7, 2010 Bottle. Pours brown with an off white head. Grainy malty aroma with a light sweetness. Similar flavor. Actually decent for what it is.

Mar 6, 2010 I’m not sure that I could call this a Bock beer. Pours a light/medium brown, but is extremely smooth and a very light taste. The drink is very weak for what it should be.

Mar 2, 2010 Not bad at all, considering Michelob is usually terrible. Pours amber-brown, minimal white head. Smells like regular macros, bitter aroma. The taste is slightly malted, a bit sweet, but very watered down. Very carbonated too, much better than Michelob Ultra.

Feb 28, 2010 Purchased on tap at Wimpie’s Steam Bar, Winterville, NC
Disappointing; no real flavor to speak of.

Feb 25, 2010 Drank from the tap at JB’s in Mosquito Lagoon, FL. A surprisingly decent beer, has a creamy, soft almost sweet flavor with a nice medium finish.

Feb 15, 2010 Me: Do you have anything good on tap? Something other than Bud or Bud Light? Maybe something dark? Waitress: Oh, yes. We have Amber Bock. Me: I’ll just have a water.
