Apr 5, 2008 Thanks to Odeed for this one. Pretty common beer, but I’ve been interested in this for awhile. If nothing else, than to try a bock made from whole hops. Poor head and a very bland aroma. I can tell this is has aged quite a bit. Taste was on the thin side with notes of oxidation and a very reduced hop profile. Still had that Anchor signature hop flavour to it. Some decent toasted specialty malts saved this for me.

Apr 5, 2008 Pours a mahogony color with a tan head. Aroma is sweet of dark fruits, toffee, caramel malts, and a hint of chocolate. Flavor begins sweet with the toffee, caramel, and dark fruits. Finishes with a little chocolate and floral hops. Not too bad.

Apr 2, 2008 (Bottle from <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/massachusetts/westborough/julio’s-liquors/461.htm target=blank>Julio’s Liquors) Pours dark iced-tea brown with some ruby/amber highlights. Very tall khaki head in my willibecher. Aroma of crystallized caramel with light chocolate/cocoa and perhaps licorice or molasses. Mouthfeel is smooth, medium-full but slightly loose. Flavor is light bittersweet chocolate/cocoa accompanied by a tea-like flavor. Light-medium bitterness overlays transitioning to a tea-like bitterness through finish. Tea-like quality is reminiscent of Anchor OSA ’03 which was a great beer. This is a good beer although could be a little more malt-heavy.
