| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Feb 5, 2003 Simple and straightfoward, this is a textbook example of what I expect a bock beer to taste like. Slightly nutty and smoky, but on the thin side in palate. Overall, a tasty "session" beer. DavidP (1743), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Feb 2, 2003 Looks great when poured into the glass, but there's little aroma and flavor. It just seemed watered down to me. notalush (2682), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 1/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 29, 2003 This is smooth and subtle. Some caramel, cloves, and a mild sweetness, make this easy to drink ale quite enjoyable. In my opinion, this is better than aventinus apoptosis (1316), Long Island, New York, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 29, 2003 Extreme maltiness and an essence of caramel. Easy to drink bock, with low alcohol content. Dark amber, some lacing around the sides of my glass. DallasBryan (111), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 18, 2003 Updated: Jan 20, 2003This is not dopplebock, this is the Scandi version of a dark/bock lager. Candied flavors help cover high alcohol without getting that too much malt wash out, makes for a silky body which to me is a plus. The Danish, Norweig and Austians are often overlooked for there contributions to the worlds great lagers. Everybody wants to fit them into german styles and they are hybrid styles there own. LOVE THIS STUFF!!!! Duffbeer (192), Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 16, 2003 Not a bad bock. Not very hoppy. blank (998), Washington, Washington DC, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 15, 2003 light black. a nice maltly, robust but laid back bock. kwoeltje (1326), Manchester, Missouri, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Dec 30, 2002 Dark brown. No head to speak of. Malty aroma, to go with a very malty, somewhat sweet flavor. I agree with earlier reviewers--it makes a nice change from heavily hopped ales.
