Apr 24, 2007 A simple, session bock. Aroma has light caramel and malt. Flavor tastes bocky enough, some light malt, a little sweet. For all their talk in the explanation, this beer is surprisingly light.

Apr 20, 2007 A 12-oz bottle supplied by JK. Pours a rich reddish dark brown with a quick dissolving laced head. Aroma of light caramel, coffee, milk chocolate and some mild grassy hops. Flavor has a chocolate taste at first and then turns more towards coffee. Palate is sweet and syrupy to the tongue. Finish is sweet. Refreshing and not too bad.

Jan 3, 2007 Mahogany-bodied (with more of a ruby tint to the edges), rather thin with a slight, tan head. Faint aromas show malted tendencies. Roasty malt flavor, still on the weak side, with a subtle sweetness that could be construed as chocolate. Even though the C.D. above condemns other breweries for "watering down" their brews, I think Millstream could stand to bump up their O.G./F.G. by a notch or two.

Jan 1, 2007 Good winter brew. Starts off with the smell of chocolate and coffee. Pours dark brown with a small light tan head. Tastes much like it smells.

Dec 27, 2006 Pour is a very dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is a nice roasted malt with some coffee chocolate. Flavor is about the same. Some chocolote and coffe with a nice silky mouthfeel. Not bad from this brewer.

Dec 22, 2006 Pours dark crimson / brown with a patchy white head. The aroma has lots of chocolate malt, light roast and effervescent qualities. Medium body with lots of prickly carbonation. Flavor starts with more roasted malt than expected, but more watery than it should be for the flavors. There is also a slight hint of chololate. The finish has slightly more chocolate and is a bit astringent and medicinal. An okay beer.

Dec 18, 2006 bottle-thanks to vyvvy for the sample. pours dark copper brown with asmall tan head. aroma of nice with notes of nuts, roasted malts, light milk chocolate and light smoke. nice chocolate flavors to start with notes of dark roasted/toasted malt husks. unfortunately, the beer suffers from a lackluster palate which was watery and somewhat thin. somewhat astringent husky notes on the finish. with a few tweeks here and there, this could be a great bock!
