Slightly metallic malt and cashew nose. Immaculately clear dark orange color, no head. Generic sweet malt and nutmeg flavor. Barely detectable nuttiness on the palate. Medium body, little flavor. Pretty much a waste of time, but that seems to be my opinion of most bocks.

Sep 2, 2008 Clear red-brown pour with a tan head. Nutty creamy malt flavor. Raisiny malt flavor with some maple syrup. Sweet with a caramel malt finish. Very flavorful and alcohol is well hidden. Smooth and thick and very easy to drink. Good beer!

Sep 2, 2008 Poured a nice reddish brown color with an off white head. Aroma is really malty and that about it, pretty basic. Flavor is also really malty, a tiny bit of alcohol shining through with hardly any sign of hops. Not the greatest beer, but pretty good for the style.

Aug 29, 2008 Updated: Aug 30, 2008The flavor profile of this beer is absolutely fantastic. As it warms it gets even better. But the nose is hardly noticeable, except for some matliness. But, besides that, I’d definitely drink this one over and over again.

Aug 22, 2008 On tap at MacNivens in Indy...Limited Special. Served in tulip glass, and was the tastiest looking beer imaginable. Smells of malts and cherries. Tastes of Cherries, berries, light oak/wood, mild hops. Abundantly full. Many flavors roaming in this treat. A true pleasure to drink. Maybe I just love taps, but this was worth the visit. Siince it’s a limited release I may be back soon.

Aug 19, 2008 Bottle pours a dark amber with a full tan head. The aroma is very sweet with notes of butterscotch, toffee, vanilla, and malts. Taste is sweet, caramel, brown sugar, malty, with a good alcohol burn and a slightly bitter finish.
