Thanks to KyotoLefty. Very malty and lightly smokey. Nice body too. I don’t taste too much of the rye.

Bottle at the RB Rochester Gathering, Aug 30/09 Thanks, KyotoLefty! This was a thick dark pour. Sweet chocolate aroma. Thick creamy mouthfeel. Sweet and spicy with only a slight bitterness. Great Bock.

Bottle at the RB Rochester Gathering, Sept. 09. Thanks, KyotoLefty! I’ve got to admit I was blown away by this stuff. Very very hazy murky light brown appearance. Malty nose, touch of the spiciness of the rye. Sweet and I smell some cherries. Sweet full palate, nutty, complex. And at the very back end...presenting hops!

Slightly muddy dark brown, with a huge head. Big aroma of banana and chocolate, and rye, clove. Slightly sour. Smooth, rich, huge flavor. Rye, banana, chocolate, spice, with a bitter hop and burnt malt finish that surprises. Super complex. Bubbly, soft, foamy mouthfeel. The funky, strange bitterness is interesting and challenging. Amazing. Their best so far.
