Nice color but disappointing in almost all respects. Light flavor and thin body. No complexity at all. Dry and drinkable but was expecting a bit more.

A dark clean amber with a medium head. Weak aroma of mild malts, smoke, caramel. Flavor is too weak to be bad. Metallic malts. Body is super thin and overall this beer is not very good.

This beer is watery. It has a very nice roasty malt flavor to it, but it’s very one-dimensional and almost in the background. This is a light macrobrewed beer that wants to be a darker heavier beer... ’Nuff said.

This is one of my go to brews. Darker than a pale ale, and more flavor really. Something of a nutty aroma with a darker finish. Not so smooth, but does the job.

Dark lager, are you kidding me? Metallic aroma with weak hint of hay and malt. Watered down flavor with more metal and a horrible attempt to place cinnamon and caramel dark malt tones behind the beer’s flavor. Cant expect much though, its pretty much cosmopolitan. Plus, they try to make you feel all fuzzy inside by giving the story about the "little brewery in Spoetzl" when, in fact, this is nowhere near a craft brew.

This beer is not a bock. Its an American lite lager with a darkening agent added that adds color but minimal flavor. Like all beers made is Texas, it sucks. Drinkable, but sucks.

Middle of the road beer for me - it’s the "normal" beer I serve to guests at parties since I’ll still drink the left-overs. Decent flavor if a little thin, lighter brown color, and only slightly bitter.
