3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours brown/red, thin off white head. Malty aroma, caramelly and bock-ish... Full bodied, malty flavour - very nice. Not something I usually go for but very good.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Toffee, caramel and plum scents. Appearance is well carbonated medium brown with creamy head. Flavor matches the nose well, with more of an emphasis on the caramel. Palate is creamy. Good.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Dark coppery brown color with a film of a head. Spicy roasted malt aroma. Sweet malt flavor with a bitter sweet finish that lasts. Medium with an almost sticky mouthfeel. This is a very easy drinking, satisfying beer.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
I must say I really enjoyed this one. Very good bock. Nice dark coper color. Getting lots of malt, but a nice balance, not a total malt bomb or anything....I would buy this again!
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
This is a really solid bock. I enjoyed this more than most Sam Adams brews. Nice malty taste with just a touch of sweetness. Some bread type notes in it as well.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours amber brown with a tan head. Aroma is caramel malts with hints of chocolate. Flavor is nice and malty with caramel, brown sugar and hints of chocolate coming through. Not bad.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours clear deep amber/copper. Aroma of toasted cereal and fruit. Taste is the same. I found this to be an easy drinker. Good stuff
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle ( 12oz ). Clear copper-amber, very large fluffy beige lasting head, thick lace remnants. Decent, if light aroma - toasty cereal malt, dry cocoa, slight sour, as from a hint of unripe fruit. Taste is syrupy, thick cereal grain, quite pungently floral, a decent bitter/sweet balance - a little fruitiness around the edges. Light, watery mouthfeel, but a bit sticky - adequately carbonated, quick-finishing, quite crisp. Not bad.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bright amber aroma - sweet bready aroma. Flavours of xmas fruit. Sweet and punchy.Soft carbonation. Drinkable, but I’d only have 1.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Aroma is caramel, bready, simple and enjoyable. The beer is a nice ruby brown color, tan head. The flavor is sweet, caramel, bread, again simple and enjoyable. The finish is slightly astringent, a mild but noticeable hop bittering. The body is medium, creamy. Very nice beer overall, nothing crazy, just a good solid performer.
