Mar 31, 2008 Pours from the bottle dark brown with a nice thick tan head that dissipates slowly. Aroma is heavy of caramel and very sweet to the nose. Flavor starts off of caramel, raisin, a little bit of a dark chocolate bite and finishes sweet with a coffee undertone and dry. Medium body with some fine carbonation to really hold the flavor for a little bit. Good beer to curl up with after work.

Mar 30, 2008 Deep brown coloured body with a nice frothy tan head. Aroma of toasted malt, coffee, nuts and a bit of concord grapes. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong roasty malt flavour with some caramel sweetness and a faint bit of metal. Aftertaste shows some malt, nuts, fresh hops and a tiny bit of yeast. Overall, a good beer - not the best bock I’ve had, but a decent offering from the brewery. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased at a small convenience store off Columbus Avenue in San Francisco, California on 30-March-2008.

Mar 30, 2008 Bottle. Pours deep clear brown with tan head. Aroma is rich caramel with a background of floral hops and a light citrus tang. Flavor is lightly sweet, roasted flavor, very subtle tartness, mild bitterness in the finish. Lively, moderately full palate.

Mar 23, 2008 bottle. Very little faint odor of molasses but a great dark amber color. Little head but too noticeable carbonation when drinking. Some licorice and port wine flavor. Very dry and a lingering sweetness. Possibly nice for the style but a little dry for my taste.

Mar 22, 2008 This is HORRIBLE!!! Impressive visually but you can’t drink a picture. 1/2 inch beige head sits above a rich reddish-brown brew. The lacing is perfect; dense splashes of suds cling to the glass every 1/4 inch. The aroma is an indistinguishable sweet...and the flavor is raw nuts and grain. Not good...did everyone else try a different beer than me???

Mar 21, 2008 Dark brown color with a medium head. Dry grainy aroma. Strong rye, malt, grain and chocolate taste. Oddly dry finish for a bock, but it’s pulled off well.

Mar 21, 2008 Bottle, nice sweet aromas plenty of raisin and currant, a touch of roast. Nice taste a bit of metallic hops, slight cloying sweetness. Quite nice, drinkable but still satisfying as a darker brew. Sweet cream and coffee make this a pleasure to drink.
