| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 3, 2009 Pours a nice reddish gold color with a foamy white head. Aroma of malt, hops. Flavor is malt, hops, citrus, caramel. Decent bock. DrDavid (957), Johnson, Vermont, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 19, 2008 (Bottle). Strange brew, sort of a hybrid mild IPA and bock. Clean malty aroma. Orange-amber body, little head. Hops dominate the flavor profile, tilting much more toward bitterness than sweetness. Not sure it all hangs together too well, but it’s still rather a pleasant effort. daknole (2972), Plantation, Florida, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 24, 2008 Bottle from my trip to Vermont in Aug. Pours a nice amber color with a very light tan head. Aroma is very sweet with notes of toffee, sweet malt and some cane syrup. Flavor is pretty sticky wtih a pretty small hop bite. Not overly impressed, but it is certainly drinakble. georgekappus (296), Brookfield, Connecticut, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 17, 2008 Bottle. Pours a deep amber with a nice off white head with good glass retention. The aroma is sweet maltiness. The taste is bock like with honey and hoppy bite. The palate is refreshing with a bit of a bite. acearl (215), J-Town, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 6, 2008 Much better than a 42%...Brownish Tangerine cloudy hue with creamy egg shell head, sweet malted barley odor, light molassas and grain, 8% alcohol is well hidden, nice flavor, low fruit/hop, very drinkable. maniac (2628), Richmond, Virginia, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 27, 2008 Picked up a bottle in Central Joisey for under four bucks. Stong alcohol dominates over the bitterness. Reminds me of a Euro Lager which does not make Hell’s Bock flavor unique. holdenn (1443), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Mar 19, 2008 22 oz bottle thanks to drewbeerme for this sample. Pours clear orange with a fluffy white head. Grainy malts in the nose with citrus and yeast. Grains and citrus flavors are lightly sweet with so much of that tanic grainy notes and a hop fiinish of faded hops. This beer is EXTREME! Extremely bad.
