Commercial Description:
A compelling argument for a bigger stocking! It’s the last of Penn Brewery’s Small Batch Brews for 2007. Packaged in a twenty-five ounce bottle with a decorative foil neck and festive velvet embroidered bag, it’s one more present to look forward to this time of year.
At this joyous time of year, do not settle for ordinary beer. You’ve been good. Get what you deserve. Don’t settle for less than the Brewer’s Reserve

Tampa, Fl. - Whole Foods - 750 ml bottle.Pours a dark chestnut brown with a nice frothy head that sticks around quite a while. Sweet aroma with hints of cotton candy and wort. Rib sticking flavor with some caramel, molasses, nuts and a bit of brown sugar. Quite complex for a bock. Thickish, rich mouthfeel. Very decent bock.

A lovely drinking bock, and happy for me I found it at StateLine Liquors. Pours dark, not overly foamy. Malty yet not too sweet.A tad of sourness. Balance, above average mouthfeel. Great after dinner digestive. Spot on.

750 ml bottle in a fancy red bag and all... (Batch 1). Pour is a dark brown, but as I’m pouring it looks like it has an almost pink color to it... Head is fairly substantial. Aromas are dusty grains. Flavor is almost completely malt and roast... with a little hint of alcohol and some nuttiness in the aftertaste. This makes this a fairly simple, yet decent brew.

Very fruity nose with floral notes. Pours deep amber with a slight cloudiness. The front is fruity, finish is roasted and slightly bittersweet. The flavor has very nice depth with some complexity.
