Dark reddish-brown body, creamy beige head, and mild carbonation. Nose is of caramel and some European aromatic hops. Smooth but somewhat syrupy malt profile. This beer is my notion of a bock. In that sense, this beer is a prototype to me. I was happily enjoying this beer on my porch when a monstrous 2 inch long fly landed on my arm, initiating a spastic reflex that spilled about 4 oz. on my lap. Warning: flies are attracted to Aass.

does not count  Jul 10, 2008 Reddish brown appearance, medium beige top. Sweet and malty aroma with some caramel and liquorice. Flavor is mild and fruitful with caramel. Also some alcohol but it’s not disturbing. Smooth palate and medium body. Good and balanced beer for cold winter nights.

Jun 6, 2008 Small head is blond beige and has big bubbles with lacing. Liquid is reddish brown and clear. Malty aroma has sweet caramel malts and rye bread. Grassy hops with some raisins. Begins with medium roasted malts and finishes as light bitter and caramel sweet. Quite rich maltiness. Medium sweet flavor with quite light bitteration. Medium bodied, texture is oily and turns to a bit sticky dry in the finish. Decent beer with malty body.

Jun 5, 2008 Decent enough beer, not overly sweet, but has an assertive maltiness. Lots of caramel, with a hint of herbal spices and some dried fruits. Not alot of complexity, but alot of drinkability. Good session style.
