COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Red Brick Red Bock is a local interpretation of traditional Bavarian Spring brews such as the Märzen or Maibock. Made with Annandale Springs water from the north Georgia mountains and both domestic and imported ingredients, Red Bock will show the balance and subtle complexity associated with Atlanta Brewing's other offerings such as Red Brick Ale and Peachtree Pale Ale. Long-time head brewer Dave McClure's interpretation of the style is a rich red brew with strong maltiness accented by subtle hints of caramel and spiced nicely with European hops; the perfect warm-up for the last cold days of the season. No more than 100 barrels of this brew will be produced, and it will only be available in Georgia on draft. Fear not, however, as it will be available at the airport for those just passing through our fair state.

IMtheOptimator (1161) - Bethel, Connecticut, USA - DEC 2, 2005
Thanks to beeryum for this beer.

Poured an almost still amber with a small fizzy white head. Aroma of cinnamon, cloves, dark fruit, and a touch of lemon. Taste is sweet and spicy with heavy notes of brown sugar and cinnamon with a mildy vinous character and a slight alcohol burn. Full body with strong carbonation. I enjoyed this one.

MullMan (1099) - New Jersey, USA - AUG 21, 2005
copper ruddy color, clear and bright. very fluffy & rocky light tan head that lasts. crazy pillars of lacing, light fizz up the body. lager-like caramel grassy aroma. high carbonation, makes it feel spicy, but the flavor is actually a little earthy malt. bitter to start but also caramel malt flavor too. finish is dry & bitter. thanks Beeryum for a hand-capped bottle!

Firemoose15 (565) - Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 30, 2005
Hand bottled bomber, thanks beeryum. Aroma was malty and sweet. Poured a nice red to brown with a decent head. Taste was good, an interesting blend of malt and hops, had a candied flavor to it. Palate was nice and even with an ever so light vanilla finish. Thanks Dave!!

Lou18 (1353) - West Paterson, New Jersey, USA - JUN 28, 2005
Hand bottled, Beeryum rocks. This poured a hazy red brown. Rich and creamy tan head. Nose had a yeast-malt thing going on. The taste was malty sweet, with candy flavors, and I got a strong vanilla noe and a sour after taste. Thank you. re-rate: there is a strong vanilla after taste that slowly sours, and I felt a warming, wonder what the ABV is on this.

Eyedrinkale (3214) - Astoria, New York, USA - JUN 25, 2005
Hand bottled 12 oz sample from Lou18. Rich amber color with a small, off white head. Aroma is sweet malts and light hops. Taste is malty without being too sweet. Flavors of caramel, grape and tobacco. Nice stuff.

SpringsLicker (2486) - Tennessee, USA - JUN 24, 2005
Noogfest Clear amber color with a small white head. In the aroma come light malt and some hops. The flavor is lightly sweet and the body is rather thin. This one lacks the maltiness and body of a good bock although it is well crafted and drinkable, just falls short of what I look for in a good bock.

Vac (2420) - Capistrano Beach, California, USA - JUN 23, 2005
Pours with a deep amber body topped by a medium thick head with some lacing. It’s slighty sweet and malty with a nice caramel note and an underlying hoppy bitterness. Medium bodied, smooth and slighlty dry.
