Commercial Description:
Keg and bottle: Filtered.
First brewed in 2005.
Ingredients: Finest barley malts, wheat malts, and fresh whole hops.
Bock beer, released in celebration of the arrival of spring, is an ancient and mysterious part of the brewing tradition. Over time, the term "bock" has come to mean a beer darker and stronger than the brewery’s regular brew. This is the first time we have brewed a bock at Anchor Brewing Co., and we hope you will find it to be a rich and flavorful addition to our offerings. San Francisco’s Anchor Bock Beer is virtually handmade by the brewers of Anchor Steam® Beer, in one of the most traditional small breweries in the world.

Bottle. Pour is a thin, yet dark and leathery brown with a massive three or four finger tan head. As the head dies back I’m treated to some dark grain aromas with a touch of sweetness and some chocolate. Flavor is a bit off... maybe I got a bad bottle, but I picked up a small touch of sourness that mixes with the chocolate/toffee and roastiness.

Draught at Waterfront. Dark mahogany with a thin frothy cream colored head. Aroma and flavor of brown sugar and grainy malts, with a layer of butterscotch. Nice touch of roastiness therein and not overly sweet. OK.

The aroma is like cola, malt, yeast, and leaves. The appearance is dark brown with an average head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. Overall it’s pretty good beer.

July 2006 - Beer poured really dark and huge head which left as quickly as it came. Deep chocolate and cherry flavor with some nut. Somewhat viney tasting and sweet caramel with sour finish...not crazy about this beer for some reason.
