New Glarus Uff-da Bock

12 oz bottle. Pours a deep, deep brown color with a hint of ruby highlights and a think, full mocha head with excellent lacing. Aroma was slight but it had hints of caramel and chocolate malts, and had a little bit of a sweet overtone to it. Flavor is rich and full. A nice and heavy bock beer. Mostly malty with a touch of roasted coffee with a little chocolate and finishes a little sweet and leaves an almost molasses flavor as an aftertaste. The mouthfeel is nice and full, that’s about the only word I can use to describe it.

Very deep, dark brown pour. Toasted hazelnut aroma. Molasses and chestnut flavors. Quite tasty.

Pours a dark, dark brown with hints of ruby around the edges. The head was minimal but did leave a good bit of lacing throughout. Smell was interesting with hints of fresh coffee up front on top of roasted caramel malts. Taste matched the smell but with a little less coffee and a little more toasted quality with caramel malts and a hint of smoke and chocolate on top of some molasses in the background. Mouthfeel is fairly light on this and the finish was crisp but slightly bitter. This brew definitely improved as it warmed up and is a very drinkable bock.

12oz bottle. Pours a lovely dark brown with a firm mocha-colored head. Aroma is sweet and rich, with hints of caramel, roasted malt, molasses, chocolate, and a bit of alcohol. Taste is fairly full and sweet, with a full flavor of roasted malt and caramel giving way to a a sweeter finish of milk chocolate, dark fruit, and a fleeting bit of alcohol. A delicious bock in all ways.

Ah, what a nice find. Beautifully dark with a light but aggressive head, the palate is coffee and caramel, brown sugar and oats, all blended against a wonderfully tasty alcohol base. Good job gentleman.
