| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 17, 2005 Bottle, pours a pleasant caramel color with a significant doughy fresh aroma. Color is a translucent red-orange with minimal head. Flows nicely over the tongue, betraying a slight alcohol note. Overall a great find! green (187), Boston, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 6, 2005 Assuming that “Stiegl Columbus Bock” is the American packaging of Stieglbock. These Stiegl product just arrived here and, in their brown bottles, have not noticeable detrimental effects from travel. Rich amber color;minimal head retention. Rather sweet but not cloying. Not big bock flavors but likeable ones. Well balanced and finishes clean. Very enjoyable. The Stiegl beers would be just about perfect “everyday” beers if they were constantly available. mkobes (2104), paramus, New Jersey, USA

I wish I had a fresh bottle, for this would be really nice. But decent as is. Nice clean malty maibock. ChrisPants (317), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 3, 2005 Cidery pour with wispy white foam disappearing before it finds its resting place on the surface. Electric orange, honey aroma. Mouthfeel of substantial carbonation and pleasantly mealy malts. Citrus, honey, and kiwi come through on the semi-sticky finish. Refreshing, with a twang of sour. thegreenrooster (1821), St.louis, Missouri, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 26, 2005 Pour is a honey looking yellow with a big white head. Aroma is weak but you get some malts in there. Flavor is mildly sweet and sticky malts. Its ok and easy to drink but that’s about it. PierreCelis (14), USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 27, 2005 Nose didn’t quite excite me. Medium body. Malty flavor almost like Malted Milk Balls or a Vanilla Malt. Very well balanced by the slight hoppiness. Yummy! Cornfield (4928), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 6, 2005 My bottle, purchased fresh just before Christmas 2004, looked like the regular Stiegl bottle and read "Stiegl Columbus Original Bock." The abv was the same. It pours a golden color with a slight head that soon haloes the glass. It’s got a mild sweet malt aroma. Medium-bodied with caramel malt flavoring, it has a nice snappy hop counterbalance. Not a bad drink, but really not what I think of when I hear "bock."
