3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Dark in color and the aroma is nice and malty. Flavor is nice and malty but a slight sourness detectable. Decent
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
A dark brown / amber color with a nice light tan head. Aroma is malts, light roast and cream. Flavor is very bold. Caramel malts, molasses, maybe some black licorice. The mouthfeel was just a bit light but still a very good beer overall.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
(Bottle from Systembolaget) Clear red color, lasting fluffy tan to brown head. Caramelly sweet scnet. Sweet raissin and some smoke taste. Medium mouthfeel, low bitterness.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Poured a deep mahogany body beneath a small, khaki head. Dark fruit aroma (prunes & raisins) with a spiced character and mild roastiness. Light terps emerge late. Dark fruity flavor with a sharpness on the tongue that leads the way to an otherwise fluffy moouthfeel. Some coffee notes join in the finish and linger. For a beer brewed "in celebration of the arrival of spring," this goat is quite a different animal than the other Maibocks you’re likely to run into.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
A Mes rate:
Bottle from Systembolaget Hansacompagniet in Malmö. Overly roasty and quite sweet. Nose is actually quite good with the barley and sweetness. Flavour is bland and pretty average truth be told. A little sticky in the palate. Whatever.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Very dark body and beige tall head. Coffee and floral aroma with an alcohol note in the background. Dark and sweet caramel, immediately followede by black cocoa, burnt grains and hops tanginess. Smooth, dry and drinkable. Another success from Anchor.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
pours a very dark caramel color with an impressive four finger fluffy light brown head. aroma is a nice blend of barley malt, and wheat malt with a little hops mixed in with the flavors of coffee and chocolate. has a light to medium body with great lacing and a touch of carbonation. flavor is barley malt and wheat malt, it has some coffee and chocolate characteristics and has a touch of hops in the end. has a malty mouth-feel to it and this is probably one of the best bocks i have had to date. has a small alcohol aroma as it warms and a little caramel aroma and flavor as well. it is a little sticky on the lips and has a dry hop aftertaste along with coffee and chocolate.
