Commercial Description:
2008. Created by homebrewer Alex Drobshoff. Alex’s Brew is a bright copper German inspired bock with a complex, full bodied mouthfeel. Hints of rich plum and cherry aromas paired with its toasty, malt flavor make this the perfect beer to linger over on a cool evening.

Bright amber aroma - sweet bready aroma. Flavours of xmas fruit. Sweet and punchy.Soft carbonation. Drinkable, but I’d only have 1.

Aroma is caramel, bready, simple and enjoyable. The beer is a nice ruby brown color, tan head. The flavor is sweet, caramel, bread, again simple and enjoyable. The finish is slightly astringent, a mild but noticeable hop bittering. The body is medium, creamy. Very nice beer overall, nothing crazy, just a good solid performer.

Amber almost red with white head and lace. Aroma of wet paper. Caramel malt flavor with a very light bitter. Medium bodied and a bit fizzy.

Pours clear red amber with a thick beige head. Aroma is caramel apple and nut. Taste is lightly roasted caramel malt and some fruit. Well made beer, very smooth and easy to drink.

Amber my red haired ass. This is cola brown with iced tea notes. Thick and creamy beige head. Wonderful butter toffee nose with a syrupy feel on the palate. Toasted malt and barley with more hops than most bock’s have. Lots of hoppy bitter aftertaste. But even after all my praise it’s not really great. Good, not great.

Bottle split with Tony. Pours a dark amber body. Aroma is wheat and "toasty" malt.... the bottle says it’s toasty, its not. The taste is

12 ounce best before 9/09 bottle in Sam Adams glass. Brown with ring head. Nice toasty brown sugar aroma with a little wood. Toasted brown sugar with sweet dark fruit and slightly medicinal lingering bittersweet finish. Starts off great, finishes...meh, Still, pretty good overall. Difficult style, I would say, as a non-brewer.

Clear copper with a slowly dissipating puffy moon crater lacemaker of an off-white topper. Aroma of grains, sweet malt, toffee, must, light cherry and fruit. Taste of mild cherry and dark fruit, diacetyl, toasted malt, toffee with a fruity and buttery finish. Finishes up dry with some coagulation.
