COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Desire coupled with curiosity can drive you to do many foolish things. Fortunately, opening a bottle of our Pandora’s Bock is not one of them. Once it is released, a wealth of flavor and complexity will spill out into the world. With a traditional bock flavor profile and a hint of hoppy goodness, there’s a reason it’s spoken about in mythical terms.

Elwood (1966) - Leesburg, Virginia, USA - MAY 17, 2012
Serving: 12 oz. bottle from Total Wine Sterling. It pours a light red color with a thin off white head. The nose dry darker malt with some bread and a decent earthy hoppiness. The flavor lightly fruity with a little bread, malt, and biscuit. Almost like a slight heavier Vienna. Medium body with easy carbonation and a pretty dry finish. Nice and very drinkable.

Drake (5231) - Charlottesville, Virginia, USA - MAY 5, 2012
12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Market Fair Lakes/Fairfax. Pours a clear copper color with a medium sized tan head. Below average head retention. Aroma of toasted caramel malts and a faint herbal note. The taste is odd... tinny, fruity, almost reminiscent of canned tomatoes, with some caramel malts. Thin-medium bodied. Okay....

Pours an amber colour. Mostly wet grains and yeast on the nose. Some interesting sweetness...otherwise this is forgettable in every way.

TheOrange (479) - Kent, Ohio, USA - APR 22, 2012
The Pour is deep mahogany, with little bubbles for a head. The aroma is very malty. The malt falvor is good, not too sweet, not too roasty. The beer is light, and the hops are just a hint. This is a very drinkable beer.

obguthr (2575) - Poquoson, Virginia, USA - APR 19, 2012
Tinny pale malt nose, canned carrots. Clear copper, thin yellow head. Astringent, vegetal, tinny. Flavor is weak malt tainted with canned potatoes and carrots. The flaw isn’t severe, but there isn’t anything else going on otherwise.

jsmerig (535) - Pennsylvania, USA - APR 13, 2012
Pours a golden brown with a tan head. Aroma of faint malt. Taste is malt forward with a slightly roasted malt finish. Not a lot of hop presence. Drinkable but unremarkable. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
