Apr 2, 2008 (Bottle from <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/massachusetts/w target=blank>Julio’s Liquors) Pours dark iced-tea brown with some ruby/amber highlights. Very tall khaki head in my willibecher. Aroma of crystallized caramel with light chocolate/cocoa and perhaps licorice or molasses. Mouthfeel is smooth, medium-full but slightly loose. Flavor is light bittersweet chocolate/cocoa accompanied by a tea-like flavor. Light-medium bitterness overlays transitioning to a tea-like bitterness through finish. Tea-like quality is reminiscent of Anchor OSA ’03 which was a great beer. This is a good beer although could be a little more malt-heavy.

Mar 31, 2008 Pours from the bottle dark brown with a nice thick tan head that dissipates slowly. Aroma is heavy of caramel and very sweet to the nose. Flavor starts off of caramel, raisin, a little bit of a dark chocolate bite and finishes sweet with a coffee undertone and dry. Medium body with some fine carbonation to really hold the flavor for a little bit. Good beer to curl up with after work.

Mar 30, 2008 Deep brown coloured body with a nice frothy tan head. Aroma of toasted malt, coffee, nuts and a bit of concord grapes. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong roasty malt flavour with some caramel sweetness and a faint bit of metal. Aftertaste shows some malt, nuts, fresh hops and a tiny bit of yeast. Overall, a good beer - not the best bock I’ve had, but a decent offering from the brewery. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased at a small convenience store off Columbus Avenue in San Francisco, California on 30-March-2008.

Mar 23, 2008 bottle. Very little faint odor of molasses but a great dark amber color. Little head but too noticeable carbonation when drinking. Some licorice and port wine flavor. Very dry and a lingering sweetness. Possibly nice for the style but a little dry for my taste.
