| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Oct 27, 2002 Malted milk nose with some winey malt. Fluffy off white head. Assertive malts w/o too much alcohol. Slightly sweet with a malted milk ball finish, good but not Merc (313), Pullman, Washington, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 27, 2002 I didn’t find this beer to be interesting at all. It was malty, definately a bock. But not a whole lot of body or flavor. mixamatt (427), San Francisco, California, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Oct 24, 2002 Dark red color with a creamy tan top. Aroma is amazing, chocolate with nuts, plenty of malt and caramel. Body is nicely sweet with a great chewy malt presence. Notes of licorice, nuts and a touch of smoke make this a top notch bock! Light iron notes in the palate detract points making it a few points below celebrator. Excellent. Rockinout (946), Kent, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 16, 2002 Smells like someone’s making fudge. Reddish-brown body, chewy, burnt caramel, molasses, semi-sweet chocolate. Finish is slightly bitter and clean. Tasty on this cold and wet Ohio October night. beerguy101 (3946), Newark, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 12, 2002 Deep red brown color. Medium foamy head. Coffee and chocolate aroma. Full bodied bock. Malty and hoppy. Malts are slightly sweet. Coffee and chocolate flavor. Nice balance. Full flavor. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and slightly dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter, a very slight alcohol bite in the aftertaste. Nice bock. rich42 (128), USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 5, 2002 red-brown color. not much nose. medium to thick body - but not as malty as other bocks. flavors are subtle - lightly roasted barley, bit of dark fruit, touch of candy-sugar sweetness. only slightly bitter. definitely a bit different than usual for the style - almost like a bock with belgian influences. the whole thing works quite well though - very nice.
