COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Abita Bock is brewed with Perle hops and British pale and caramel malts. Our Bock is similar to a German Maibock in its high malt content, full body and slightly higher alcohol content. Available January-March.

(Bottle) Pours an amber color with a small white head. Sweet aroma, with a nice malty taste. Some grain in the taste as well. High carbonation, yet decent mouthfeel. Pretty ordinary, nothing really stands out in this beer. I like it better than many of their brews though.

MrBunn (2006) - Western, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 5, 2010
Bottle labeled as Mardi Gras Bock. Pours a clear gold/orange with a pretty decent head that spills over the sides of the glass and causes a little cussing before cleanup. Aromas are sweet and doughy, with little evidence of a heavy hops presence. Flavor is a little syrupy sweet... lots of honey and dough, a little bit of a herbal presence, some fruit (pears) and a hint of abv.

Pours an orange with an medium head and some lace. The aroma is somewhat vegetal and very faint with some light fruity notes. The flavor is fruity and toasty with some mild spice and some good crisp hoppiness.

Pours dark golden with mostly receding wispy off-white head. Aroma of sweet malt, light caramel, cookie. Taste is malty, toasted bread, sweet wort, earthy malt. Mouthfeel is full bodied with moderate carbonation. I find many bocks too sweet for my taste, but I think this beer does a good job in that regard.

Slick (1971) - Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA - JUN 15, 2004
Gotta top off the evening with a bock.Nice amber color,small off white ehad that faded quickly and left little behind.The aroma was Malty with a mild fruity presence maybe some spice but hard to say it could just be a bit peppery.Mild hops and little more.Malty taste with a slight hint of alcohol and fruit and the hops managed to get away without much of a showing.The spicy side did show but only mildly.Not bad but definatley could use some more work.

Served a highly carbonated amber with a cream colored skin & thick halo. Apple juice aroma underscored by cabbage and yeast. Well-hopped and spicy flavor with a sharp mouthfeel contradicting a smooth body. Touches of fruit and honey.

MilkmanDan (1943) - Eagan, Minnesota, USA - JUL 2, 2004
Quite pale, a light, clear copper-gold. Nose a bit off, some malts, but something unpleasant lurks. Flavor is somewhat bland, a bit sweet with some caramel. Kind of boring.
