OFallon Goats Breath Bock Ale

12oz bottle, courtesy of a trade from a while ago. Thanks! Pours a medium-to-dark honeyed cola color; thin, light-tan head with patchy lacing. Decent amounts of nougat and caramel in the aroma, with some sticky candy sugar / dried red fruits creeping in. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: lots of cola, brown sugar, and dried red and dark fruits upfront; sweet, clean character, with honeyed sweetness at the core; a bit oily mouthfeel at the edges; lingering sweetness throughout. Medium, sweet finish: loads of brown sugar and dried dark fruits; ends with lingering sugar.

Bottle. Pours a dark amber red. Smells of malts and sweetness. Tastes like caramel and other roasted flavors. Pretty weak on the flavor. Very smooth and drinkable.

Dark brown with lots of red. Nice tan head lasts a couple of minutes leaving only the faintest ring. Sweet aroma is full of malt. Both roasted and caramel malt fill the nose. Hops are noticed but are dominated by the malt, especially caramel. Dark cherry and some wood flavors. Alcohol provides a warming effect. Interesting beer in that all of those flavors sound great but just don’t quite work together. Not a bad beer but a bit of a disappointment.

12oz bottle. Poured a a deeper and muddy amberish color wtih a small sized off white head. Aromas of toasted grains, caramel, light chocolate, and bready. Tastes of toasted malts, caramle, nutty, an dsome brown sugar sweetness.

Bottle. Poured a clear reddish brown with faint wispy off-white head. Sweet rich malt aroma. Flavor is rather potent, malt with a sweet chocolate character. Thin in the mouth with a dry finish.
