Pour was a dirty copper/gold color with a very small head. Mellow, malty and bready nose. Flavors are sweet bread with honey. Medium/light body.

eaglefan538 (2726) - Wilmington, Delaware, USA - JUN 2, 2006
Golden in color with almost no head. Somewhat dough-like aroma with a sweet and doughy flavor. Not much to it, but it was a nice beer. Could have used more hops.

At North Wales location. Standard fare for the style, less sweet than expected. Good, not great.

Alright, not great though. It had all the proper maibock characteristics but the finish was a little funky. I wouldn’t call it a clean finish. The hops were there, maybe I got an old pint or something, but it was more like an ale finish than a good clean bock.

Had on special one day in Newark and am thankful I did. Above-aveage bock, balanced and bubbly.

Ungstrup (22911) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUN 4, 2005
[At GABF 2004] A clear yellow beer with a small disappearing white head. The aroma is hoppy and malty with a slight hint of alcohol. The flavor is primarily malty in the beginning, to end up with a dry hoppy end.

Wilmington. Clear copper body, puffy white head. Aroma malty but light. Flavor is somewhat bitter, but mostly dominated by caramely and chocolate malts. Seems a bit overcarbonated. Eh.

DocLock (5776) - Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 3, 2004
Draft at North Wales. Pours deep gold with copper menisci. Aroma of malt, hops, fruit, some wheat and honey. Tastes malty, fruity, with a firm honey burst upon esophagination. Well balanced, nice complexity, and a great beer. Finished 3rd in my growler selections.
