12 ounce bottle that pours a clear amber color that has a head that dissipates fairly quickly. smells of sweetness, some caramel, flavors follow the aroma, was expecting more for this beer.

Pours rich amber with very little head and what was there is gone in 30 seconds. Caramel and sweet fruit such as peach, plum and apple is the aroma along with some roast malt. Taste is toasty, malty and pretty sweet but not sticky. The body is pretty good, but overall it’s decent.

12oz bottle labled Mardis Gras Bock. Clear orange color with almost no head. Aromas of caramel malt and grassy hops - taste is earthy, malty, and grainy.

Bottle. Clear golden with white head. Aromas of bread, flower, pine. Flavors of bread, honey, pine. Balanced finish, slight malty. Medium body with firm mouthfeel and moderate carbonation. Too much sulfur character but crisp and well balanced.

Sampled on tap at Tyler’s. No more consumed as it didn’t do it for me. Bocks aren’t my thing, and this did a poor job of convincing me otherwise. Orange-amber pour, sweet malts and honey. Too sweet.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden amber color with a medium sized head that quickly fades. Toasted malt and toffee/caramel aroma. Has some alcohol in the initial flavor mixed with the toffee notes. Decent aftertaste followed by a bit more alcohol in the finish.

Appearance highly carbonated, clear amber lager with good presentable creamy head.4-
Flavor and Palate : earthy, nutty front with thinner body. This is quiet evident if you call your self bock. Earthy, cellar like finish. Strange.

Pours an orange amber with a short head that fades quickly. Sweet bready malty aroma. Sweet tasting and light to medium bodied. Crisp finish with a funky chalky aftertaste. Not sure what to make if it.
