Not sure why I haven’t had this before. Something tells me i might have. Eitherway, last night I enjoyed $6 pitchers of this pretty decent beer. Pours a dark black colour with a small tan head. Aroma is pleasent, dark roasted malts, caramel and burnt toast. Taste is slightly metallicy eitherwise light but filling. coffee, raisins and plums.

12oz bottle. Poured a clear ruddy orange-brown color. Head was thick and tan with good retention. Smelled of subdued chocolate, nuts, and black bread. Dry up front with fairly light body. There was some water-down raisin and fig flavors with a chocolate accent and delicate sweetness at the end. Not terrible.

Deep amber with a medium off-white head. Aroma of caramel, bread, sweet malts and Lake Michigan (fish). Light on taste and lacking any substance this is a run of the mill bock. Finishes with a peppery finish that leads way to a mouth pursing dry aftertaste.

Reddish-brown, clear, with thin head. Mild malt Carmel aroma. Carmel malt and mild hop finish. Bitter lingering finish.

Tasted 3/28/08. 12oz bottle. Filtered with a dark bronze hue. Finger width of khaki colored head. Sweet malt aromas. Notes of cinnamon and sweet breads. Medium bodied and malt driven. Smooth and easy. Touch dry in the finish. Nice dark bready flavor. Mild effervescence and slight hops. Touch cocoa pops up somewhere in the middle of the palate. Nice session, inexpensive and high drinkability.
