Commercial Description:
Since 1860, Schell’s Bock meant spring was around the corner. And until recently, tradition and climate dictated the seasonality of Bock beers. Today, with the ability to control strict brewing environments, we’re able to usher in a new tradition—August Schell Caramel Bock, available year-round.
This medium-bodied, dark copper beer sports a light caramel flavor with a hint of malt sweetness. We figured beer drinkers aren’t seasonal, so why should beer be?

Mild, easy going very drinkable bock. mmm, borders on a session beer. Pours with a nice fine tight head, light tan color. Some lace. Brownish color with lovely garnet red hightlights. Malty with a hint of roasty aromas. Pleasant finish. A straightforward beer that is complex in its simplicity. Having a bottle of this at Bodega Brew Pub downtown La Crosse, Wis. USA

12 oz bottle out of a sampler pack. Has a dark copper color and a small off white head. The beer is slightly sweet and has a slight caramel taste to it. Overall, this is an enjoyable beer, that goes down smooth and is easy to drink.

Bottle, an enjoyable Bock. Poured a dark amber color, with a rich sweet aroma of malts and chocolate. Not as sweet as I thought it would be, but had notable caramel notes. A decent beer that I could get again.

Pours a very dark amber color with thin tan head. Medium body with rich caramel flavor. Quite sweet but a good beer for once in a while. Pretty good bock.

Brownish amber color, minimal head. Flavor is roasted malts and caramel sugar. Has a slightly burnt note. Medium body. Somewhat sweet. Not bad, but not as good as some of the other Schell beers.

Pours a light red-brown with a small amount of head. Aroma is burnt sugars/caramel and a bit of vanilla. Flavor is caramel and malts with a bit of bitterness to finish. The body is pretty light with some carbonation. An okay bock.

Appearance: Pours a clear, reddish-brown body with a small, creamy off-white head. Smell: Aroma full of caramel, toasted malts, and apple juice. Taste: Carnival caramel apples with a toasted malt flavor and plenty of sweetness. I don’t pick up much in the way of hops here. Sweetish, apple juicey finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Sticky mouthfeel. Drinkability: It’s an okay bock, but the sweetness becomes a bit grating in the long run.
