| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Dec 29, 2008 Brown colour with a red centre. Not much on the nose...a little earth. This is an extremely light beer. Distinct taste of water throughout the mouth....very light hops and a whisper of roasted malt. I really wish just about everything was just a little intensified. Then this might be a real winner. bkurtz (276), Peru
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 27, 2008 Poured clear brown with a white head. Nice light malts. Pleasantly surprised, as it is not too sweet and has a smooth finish. aetheon (57), Beer Dungeon, Minnesota, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 19, 2008 Updated: Jan 7, 2009nice Golden Brown with little aroma, lightly carbonated. Overall generally crisp with lots of toasty malts, light amount of hoppiness and a fairly clean finish. flavor has notes of cereal and caramel. A good all around beer, the kind where you could drink 3 or 4 or more. could also be a good summer beer. bblack99 (202), Kansas City, Missouri, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 19, 2008 MUCH better than Lone Star, this should reign as the official beer of Texas. Not a great beer, but more complex than some others.
Dark caramel color with a tannish head. Simple straightforward malt flavor. Worth a six-pack, not quite a case. hobbersr (393), Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Dec 18, 2008 Pours a reddish amber colour with a small white head. Aroma of toffee, malt, sweet candy-ish notes, apples, wine notes as well. Palate is lighter than I would expect with the colour and pretty thin. Tastes of toffee, apples, a little bitter hops, fairly malty, fairly mediocre. dwaggs2 (534), Lee’s Summit, Missouri, USA
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 3/5 | 6/20 | Dec 15, 2008 Bottle. Pours a brown color with a two finger head. Aroma is malt. Taste is not very good. Not a whole lot there. Not worth the price. troopie (862), USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 15, 2008 Bottle. Poured Dark red brown with a small head and no lacing. Aroma is grassy and slightly malty, like a lager. Thin flavour with some slight caramel note. Slight but lingering finish, with a bit of bitterness. The previous rater is right, this is not a bock, this a dark lager, better than most industrial lagers, but this is not a bock. tarheels86 (730), Washington DC, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Dec 7, 2008 On tap. Pours a dark amber with a modest beige head and some great lacing. Aroma is incredibly sweet with whiffs of toffee and caramel. Taste is a little watery and similar to Yuengling albeit a bit heavier- very much like artificial maple syrup. Long, sweet aftertaste. Not offensive, smooth and drinkable. But this is not a bock.
