May 15, 2007 Very dark body and beige tall head. Coffee and floral aroma with an alcohol note in the background. Dark and sweet caramel, immediately followede by black cocoa, burnt grains and hops tanginess. Smooth, dry and drinkable. Another success from Anchor.

May 14, 2007 pours a very dark caramel color with an impressive four finger fluffy light brown head. aroma is a nice blend of barley malt, and wheat malt with a little hops mixed in with the flavors of coffee and chocolate. has a light to medium body with great lacing and a touch of carbonation. flavor is barley malt and wheat malt, it has some coffee and chocolate characteristics and has a touch of hops in the end. has a malty mouth-feel to it and this is probably one of the best bocks i have had to date. has a small alcohol aroma as it warms and a little caramel aroma and flavor as well. it is a little sticky on the lips and has a dry hop aftertaste along with coffee and chocolate.

May 13, 2007 overall impression is lacking, but dig abit deeper and it shows sum promise...pours a dark ruby brown...low head..some promising lacing...smell is actually quite fine...taste is damn muddled, no balance..aftertaste for a bock is frightening...needs more taste, more sweetness, maybe even more hops..but it REALLY needs more alcohol too... a good beer but overall abit disappointing!

May 10, 2007 A small beige ring settles on top of a clear dark-ruby body. Aroma and taste is mainly raisins dipped in molasses. Raisins take over the molasses as the beer warms up. A little floury touch. Faint floral hops in the finish. The beer is very simple but could be quite effective if it wasn’t for the lacking body. A bit sticky and airy with a sparse carbonation. The end-result the type of nice but generic bock you get in half the of the USA brewpubs. As effective but also as innovative as a doorstop.

May 7, 2007 Dark black body that glows red in light.
Thich foamy white-brown head that last pretty well. Aroma is of chocolate and breadish in the start. Gets more sour and of grapes later on.
Flavor is also bready and roasted its get more grape-sour after a while.
Palate is medium and leaves a harch aftertaste, like the one you get if you bite the seeds from a grape.

May 7, 2007 Dark brown with a thick tan head. Heavy aroma of molasses, toasty malt, and bread. More molasses in the taste, but accompanied by cocoa and nuttiness. Very rich and heavy mouthfeel. Nice.

May 6, 2007 Poured a dark brown; frothy medium to large off white head. of caramel and toasted malt, with a peppering of hops. Flavor of roasted malt and nuttiness; with some sourness. Really different flavor. Some molasses and hops. New to the style, not sure what I really make of this one.
