| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 3, 2001 This is a rich thick beer but with some spicy/citrusy flavors. This isn’t what I would call a typical bock because of the extra spicy flavorings which I liked in the first few sips but tired the more I drank the beer. HopBackDoc (395), Hatboro, Pennsylvania, USA

Pours a deep brown/black with minimal tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, toffee and cocoa. Flavor is full of more roasted malts, coffee, cocoa and finishes with a nice hop bite. Medium bodied beer. Solid winter beer. MattShizzle (385), Bernville, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 15, 2004 Bottle. I had this for the first time at the 2002 beer exchange. Thanks JZ. This one pours nice and dark amber with a spicy nose and a great spicy malty caramel flavor. Good solid body and mouthfeel with a nice finish of solid malts an bitterness that falls into a peppery spice. Good stuff, as always from Penn. Sonicdescent (382), Donora, Pennsylvania, USA

Pours a dark golden color with a very thin layer of lasting off white head. Smell is good but has no outstanding qualities. A very light citrus/hop scent. Taste is good with a smooth spice taste followed by a hoppy bite and a nice aftertaste. Pretty full bodied for it’s type and leaves a nice coating feeling after swallowing. Very drinkable and even sessionable with the warning that this has a much higher alcohol content than it may let on. jcalbi (378), New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 1, 2002 Chestnut brown with a sweet syrupy aroma. Very nutty, chocolatey flavor witha well disguised hop bitterness. irishsnake (353), Oakland, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 26, 2003 (on tap @ Fatheads) A very dark bock with more roast notes than usual for the styles. The spiciness of the hops contribute to the satisfying dryness. Very drinkable, if a bit dry for the style.
