heemer77 (3669), Savannah, Missouri, USA Mar 11, 2008 A dark amber body that is nearly ruby. The aroma was caramel with some black tea and cherries. The taste had some caramel and black tea. There was a nasty cherry syrup type finish. A much better bock than I was expecting. this was the one Beck’s beer I wouldn’t mind trying again. Sledge Jr (2716), Omaha, Nebraska, USA Aug 2, 2005 On tap at the brewpub. Mahogany red in color. Low carbonation. No head. Syrup aroma. Sweet and roasted. Flavor is very sweet. I suppose that this has higher alcohol, but right now in Iowa, that can’t mean more than 5% ABW. possibly the best beer made here, but mostly sucks. This will remind you of a watered-down Jaegermeister shot.
