3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
A nice beer and it’s charactteristics (appearance, aroma and taste) are above average and pleasant.
It is clearly what it says it is, a Helles Dopple Bock. If this is not a type of beer you like, you may not like this one either. It starts sweet and fades silighly, but ends sweet too. You’re lips will be sticky.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Poured golden with a nice frothy head. The nose was of bread, some hints of nuts and honey.Flavor was malty and cereal like.Not too sure if I would revisit this one.
2.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle from Frugal Mac’s. Poured a light yellow with a light head. Phoooo... Probably the worst smelling beer I’ve ever come across. Thankfully, the taste was different. It was definitely drinkable, but nothing memorable. If you’re an Abita fan, check it out, but plug your nose first.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Being that my name is Andy, I was naturally drawn to Andygator. I’m typically not a big fan of Bocks but I’m enjoying this one. Definitely has a bite to it and maintains a malty character. Would probably buy again if possible.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Sample from September 11, 2009 Beer Club Meeting. Looks dense! Light amber color. Thin, sticky color. Spicy, almost woody (pine?), light fruit flavor. Tastes like... cayenne? Much like a pale, spicy lager. Is it really spicy, or am I just hallucinating?
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pour from bottle...Light aroma of bread...Flavor was bread and honey...It was okay...Nothing outstanding...
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bomber into a Guinness glass (thanks, Leon’s Pub...). Fruity and malty that really doesn’t remind me of anything dry like they say.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Couldn’t get into this one at all. Just seemed like a clash between the strange aroma and the lack of imagination and flavor. The beer pours out a clear light amber/colden color with 1" white head. Aroma is old cereal and corn with a strange...milkyness to it. Flavor is dominated by overly-sweet malts, alcohol and a mildewy grassy note. Reminds me in many ways of some kind of European malt liquor.
