Feb 24, 2007 Bottle. Poured deep brown with an average fizzy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Good complex toasted malty aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Moderate balanced malty sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of short duration. Drinkable brew.

Feb 19, 2007 Toast and chocolate nose with a slight peppery, herbal note; chocolately, caramelly and a little harsh and burnt, slightly buttery; finishes piney, tart and snappy. Very good, but not as smooth as it should be.

Feb 19, 2007 12oz 7JK - Tiny dark tan h3ead over dark, dark red liquid. Small bubbles and good lace. Licorice and cloves on nose, roasted malt but not the "typical" bock flavor profile. Good.

Feb 16, 2007 From a distinctive Anchor stubby twist off 12 oz. bottle with a coded bottling date on the back label, sampled at cellar temperature in a dimpled mug.
Poured a reddish hued dark cola brown with a frothy, creamy tan head that settled into a thin sudsy lacing, small amount of ringed. laced sticking.
Aromas of chocolate, toffee, sweet berry fruity and lightly floral.
Good moderate carbonation and a crisp, dryish, creamy smooth light-medium bodied mouthfeel.
Pleasant tasting, a nice balance between malts, yeast and hops, chocolate covered caramel toffee that meshes with the sweet fruitiness, dry leafy hops that have a soft bitterness, a little spiciness as well, and a dry coffee, fruity finish.
A good spring seasonal from Anchor, one of the better American bocks.

Feb 16, 2007 Nice amount of medium bodied malts, light chocolates, weak coffee, bready, with a fairly bitter finish. Palate is a little to thin for me but its not terrible dissapointing.

Feb 13, 2007 Pours a great brown with red and settles dark brown with a large tan head. the aroma is a crisp and sharp earthy malt. Big peat malt and a spiciness giving hints of the great character from Anchor’s OSA. Earthy malt flavor, a little coffee and peat, spicy and some sweetness. A nice mix of irregular flavors. Finish is earthy, and smoky.

Feb 11, 2007 Updated: May 7, 2007Bottle, 355 ml. Pours dark brown with thick foamy beige head. Generous malt aroma with chocolate, coffee, dark bread, and grapefruity hops. Creamy mouthfeel, medium bodied, nicely restrained malt sweetness with some bitterness and also some acidity. A good beer, but should it really be called a bock?
