Mar 8, 2009 Very clear amber with a white head. Spicy yeasty aroma with sulfer/ burnt rubber. Light/ medium body with a frothy mouthfeel. Decent grainy malt, lightly sweet caramel flavor. Not too bad.

Mar 6, 2009 12 oz. bottle labeled as Mardi Gras Bock. Pale copper color with the smallest of white heads. I had a little trouble picking up the nose on this one. What I could find included malt and some banana notes. Light on the tongue with decent carbonation. Definite banana and bread notes on the palate. Some malt, fruit, and grain come through as well. A very mild hop bitterness at the end. It finished very clean but just a little quite for my tastes. Not bad, but there are better versions of this style.

Feb 27, 2009 Amber red color. Small head, but lasts decently long. Sweet smelling yeast aroma. Caramel tasting malts and nice carbonation. Watery mouth feel. Overall just kinda boring.
