Dundee Pale Bock Lager

Brewed by High Falls Brewing Company
Style: Heller Bock
Rochester, New York USA

Bouteille. Dégusté avec french tickler. Biere de couleur miel tres clair avec un collet presque absent. Odeur de sucre, miel, cerises, mangue et un peu d’épices. Odeur d’épices, un peu d’alcool, miel et oranges.

Has a more orange/brown hue than a regular pale lager. Decent malty aroma. I think it is more pungent than others have said. A sweet aroma that is hard to describe. Don’t get me wrong, this beer doesn’t blast the nose, but it the aroma is noticed. I think I am smelling some honey, but I could be wrong. There is this distinct sweet smell. Very sweet malty and honey taste. Wow, that has a creamy palate as well. A sort of buttery taste/finish. Overall, a distinct aroma, with buttery notes, and a creamy palate. Not as bad as others have said, but not that great. Purchased a mix pack of this, so I get to try 5 more Dundee beers!

Bottle Pours a clear golden with a nice white head. Decent staying on the head and okay lacing. Has a very faint odor of sweet malts but not much else. Has a light body and a touch light on carbination. Taste is definetly lacking. It is hard to find much in this beer. It isn’t bad there just isn’t much there.

didnt quite know what the hell was going on in the glass after the pour, a mild hurricane of discombobulation that fruited a massive cloud of confusion. Its an ok beer, the new labeling is great, but where is bite? The hook, the selling point?

Bottle from Jacon. Aroma has mild sweetness and not much else. Sweet flavors dominate front palate, along with some strange bitter soil flavors. I wasn’t impressed or interested by this beer.

~Pours a see through golden amberish color with fluffy white head. ~Sweet malt aroma with a bit of honey and dry oats. ~Sweet flavor of honey and oats, funny aftertaste, a bit astringent. ~Dont care too much for the mouth feel. It is very light and slightly burns. bad finish. ~Drinkable brew. Very uneventful. Good with a meal, but a bit boring by itself.

Great aroma. I had my nose stuck in the glass more often than drinking. Palate was not as impressive as the aroma and that’s where this beer lost me.

This bock lost some of its head when I opened the bottle. The pour was clear and golden. Seemed to have a good balance of maltiness and hoppiness without a bitter finish. The body seemed seemed a bit light on the palate to me. Before I complain that the beer is not very complex and a bit light for a bock, I need to remember that this craft pack scores at under a dolla a bottle. Maybe this beer needs to move up on some value rating.
