3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft beer from the brewpub in Everett, WA. This came in the glass a clear amber color with a small white head and light lacing. Nose of roasted malts and some ripe fruit. Medium body and good smooth mouthfeel. Flavor is complex with lots of malts, fruit, and some nuts. Finish is on the sweet side. Nice rendition of the style.

Sample bottle a few years back. Idea are definitely there for the style with not a huge follow through.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
This beer pours a mild amber color, fairly clear with a thin white head and semi-lasting lacing poured from draft. Aromas were somewhat tough to decipher, but I was able to pick up notes of roasted malt, sweet malt, and vanilla. The flavor is medium bodied, smooth and sweet finishing. Overall carbonation level is light to moderate. Sweet vanilla body with hints of almonds, citrus and schwarzbier roastiness. So far this hasn’t been getting great ratings, but I thought this was a decent beer...sweet, not so dry finish, it gets its message across!
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
A thicker maltier version of the Weizenbock. Loaded with honey, grains, and some definite toastiness, this beer is very typical as far as bocks go. The one definitive merit this beer has is in the drinkability department, although I’m not sure this is the biggest selling point a beer might have - especially a bock, which is usually a style filled with flavors of all kinds. I definitely preferred this to the weizenbock, but not to most bocks.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Crystal clear apple juice body with off-white head. Aroma is moderately sweet, caramel, candi sugar. Taste is very sweet, candi sugar, caramel. Medium-full body. Too sweet.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
2003 7.5%: Medium amber colour, white head, alcoholic aroma, banana and brandy. Malty start but thins to an alcoholic lingering.
