3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
12 oz bottle - Central Market - Austin, Tx. Pours a dark orange with little to no head - what is there is snow white. Aroma is pretty much non-dememo - pick up some fresh lake water accents, a faint whisp of caramel. Flavor has some of those same malty caramel notes with a bit of cotton candy sweetness. Mouthfeel is thick and slightly syrupy - highlight of this one. A very decent bock- especially from the south. Enjoyed

This is very much like a pale oktoberfest? Pours out a solid gold w/ some floaties.Smells very sweet/teases of apricot(decnt hopage?.It tastes pretty decent.Malty/some hops/good bitterness(for whatever this brew-style is bock?)Has a slight vegetable essence in the aftertaste(greenbean at times)The head is weak and quick/no lace.It has a dry finish I didn't expect.Not bad for 4.35 a six-pack.This does remind me of cheaper brew but the taste pulls it out of that realm.It was a bit past date(BestBefore 6/6/03)but held up very well in the fridge.still had great hop use for abita!(purchased at Ronnie's in forest hill,MD)

12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a moderate linen white head that lasted through the first third of the glass and left partial lace. Light aroma of malt and not much else. The flavor is basically malt with just a hint of bread emerging towards the finish. Very light hops bitterness at the finish as well. Medium bodied. Very easy to drink and true to style. No problems.
