Mar 8, 2007 Draft at Comet with Shigadeyo. Pours a translucent amber with a small off white head. Faint malty aroma. Medium carbonation. Nice toasted malt and bready malt base countered by spicy european hops, which provide a pleasant bite. I agree with Shigadeyo, that it had some mellow whisky or perhaps a mild boozy like charcter to it. Nice beer.

Mar 6, 2007 3/06/2007 at The Comet with illinismitty... Bright, clear, light copper/honey color with a small, foamy beige head. Malt and light fruit to in the aroma. Substantial, but not overpowering malt flavor (slightly toasty) with hints of fruit and a whisky-like character. Supposedly the alcohol content approaches 8% for this beer, but one can’t tell since it’s so well hidden. Smooth on the palate, medium body. This is another impressive Barrel House offering and a really nice and enjoyable session bock beer!
16 oz draught.

Mar 4, 2007 Hazy golden pour with frothy head has a slight nose of straw, sweet caramel, and maple syrup. Palate is very nice with a creamy heft to it. Flavor is rich and deep with a caramel stickiness that is rounded nicely by a hop back. Easy to hoist a few, but a mature character as well.

Sep 18, 2006 On draft in Columbus near OSU campus. Gold, thin head, good lacing, low carbonation. Fruity nose, doughy palate, hoppy finish. Okay, I prefer the german bocks I guess.

Mar 7, 2003 Updated: Apr 3, 2007Caramelly taste and aroma with a slight musty aroma. Slight hop bite on the flavor and the finish. Pretty good bock.
