3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: APR 8, 2004 Small head, mostly diminishing. Gold body. Aroma is sweet and fresh with honey, light brandy, and white grape hints. Flavor is a bit watery and sweet, but I like it. Contains a type of rummy white wine with some peach. Finishes quick, a bit bitter. Overall, it isn't a big beer, but an enjoyable drink.

December '03 bottling. Color is copper with minimal head. Slightly spicy (warm nutmeg) sweet bread (donuts) aroma. Muddled start with bread and fig. Finish tastes like spiced rum w/o the alcohol. Meh.

Pours a clear copper with a thin white head. Dry, semi sweet aroma has a hint of caramel and some graininess. Body is smooth, with a nice sweetness and crisp finish. Mild floral hop accents, but not much bitterness. A nice easy-drinking bock with good balance.

Decent lager, better bock; the labels from this brewery are confusing as it does not say anything about being a bock, it says lager, but it is darker and maltier than a typical lager. You know what they say, if it walks like a bock and talks like a bock...

Well, I did the brewery tour (again) this weekend, and they finally had this on tap. Wasn't a real big fan. Taste like a sweet MGD.

Very sweet, with a kind of sparkling ale's subtle fruitiness. Quite tasty, with a lumpy, whipped egg white lookin head.

Had on tap. Honey colored with a medium white head. Great malt vanilla aroma. A surprisingly complex beer, flavors of sweet malt, vanilla, honey with a yeast feel to it. Delicious.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear golden color, with a healthy white head. Smells like honey and toast. An interesting taste, reminicent of cider. A touch of honey flavor as well. Sweeter than I'd expected, and thicker as well. A perfectly acceptable beer.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Clearish, deep golden with a frothy head. Soft and smooth mouthfeel. Surprisingly roasty for a "light lager"... which is what I thought it was at first, but it's rather light for a "doppelbock." Hints of bitter/burntness, toast, and maybe even a sour apple note here and there. Very mild hop bitterness in the finish.
