Una Bock con mas similitudes a una American Dark Lager.. cerveza de temporada. Diferente a la gran mayoria de cervezas elaboradas en México. Aromas casi ausentes, ligera malta y caramelo tostado, levaduras.. Buen color, ambar brillante.. En general una cerveza apegada a los lineamientos del estilo, simplemente buena, pero que definitivamente podría mejorar.

Not half bad! I’d maybe even pick this over Negra Modelo if it was available at the taqueria.

I had been excited to try this for years, but what a let down. All the elements are there, but watered down.

Bottle from choice beverages. Pours a deep mahogany with a medium tan head. The aromas are bread, cinnamon, musk. The mouthfeel is bready and slightly sweet with a medium body. Cheers!

12oz bottle from Pick’s. 2010 edition. Poured into an English Pint. Pours a nut brown with about half a finger of frothy off-white head. Aroma of toasty malt and slight hops. Taste is light sweet and light bitter. Taste has a hint of caramel and something that reminds me of Christmas. Maybe cinnamon or nutmeg. Medium bodied with a thick and creamy texture. Not much finish. Overall, it’s not too bad. Very drinkable. It deserves much better than the 30 rating it has.

Pours clear amber color with off white head, Toasted malt aroma with some graniness and nuttiness. Sweet toasted malt and carmel flavors with a little nuttiness. Medium body with average carbonation. Better than I was expecting.
