Poured from a 12 oz bottle. Nice medium amber color, almost as dark as a cola. The head was very fizzy and short lived. There’s not much ofan aroma - it’s not strong but it’s pleasant, weakly malty with hints of coffee. Nice malty flavor with a hint of honey sweetness. Pleasant to drink - not to sweet.

Good, solid, malty beer. Dark but refreshing and very drinkable. Hooray for Texas!

Granted, I drank this from a plastic cup while eatin barbecue, but found this beer to e somewhat fizzy and very weak tasting, especially for a bock.

Dark amber with fizzy, disappearing white head / No nose / Light, high carbonated body / Weak coca cola, caramel flavors, with light fizzy finish / Lot of fizz.

Aroma is mild aluminum and a little sweet corn/malt. Brownish colored with nice red hues and no head. Flavor is mild sweetness with crisp hops. A little corn and generic sweet malt flavor. Mouthfeel is pleasant, as the carbonation tickles the tongue and the hops are nice and crisp.

Head dies quickly, lite brown in color. Malty biscuity body that unfortunately has an odd tinny finish. And OK, cheap, session beer.

12 oz bottle, Stateline Liquors. Pours a crystal clear light brown body under a small fizzy off-white head that faded quickly to a partial film. Aroma is of toasted malt with a hint of coffee and nuttiness. A little bit of corn also. The flavor is fairly grainy and thin with some corn and toasted malt. Mouthfeel is thin and watery with lots of fizzy forced carbonation. Overall, this was just as thin and watery as expectd.
