| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jun 15, 2006 Light amber color is transparent, with a small white head. Kind of a dry wheat taste as well as some sweetness from the malts. Finish is a bit tart with the presence of a higher alcohol content. harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 14, 2006 Has a very distinct cooke grain aroma, and somewhat vegetal. Not the best mai bock style that I have ever tried, but decent. Has a simple sweetness to the maltiness. Finishes slightly bitter and dry. oldrtybastrd (1801), Morlautern, Germany/Great Falls, Montana, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jun 13, 2006 BOTTLE - Pours a bright golden amber color, head lasted about 20 seconds. No lacing to speak of. Aromas of spice, light grains, and a touch of something fruity. Flavor is medicinal, sweet, and sort of vegatal. Not impressed with this offering. ontario102 (794), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 27, 2006 Bottle: Floral and cologne aromatic qualities; simple, clean, and balanced sweetness with a dry, grainy finish; tart and spicy, and certainly does not seem as alcoholic as it is. In the end, this one doesn’t do much for me. NYHarvey (2154), New York, New York, USA

low intensity grainy aroma with some mild malt sweetness. Orange tinted golden body with a diminishing thumb thick head. Very lager looking. Fairly spicy fore is also packed with earthy malts, perfumey clove like flavors and a hint of stiffer spice int he finish. Taste delivers much more than aroma. Not a bad little bock really and handles the 7.1% abv quite nicely. 5000 (2409), Hardened Liver, Washington, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 14, 2006 Bottle: Orange in color, fairly clear, light carbonation, moderate foamy white head, spotty lacing. Kilned malt aroma, grains, slight whole wheat breadiness. Semi-sweet malt character, fairly light, clean, but not as big or heavy as other examples. Simple, but very quaffable. Body and mouthfeel are moderate. Finish is fairly crisp, only very lightly chewy. Would be nice to see this one be a bit bigger with more robust nose, but as it is its a easy drinking lighter Bock. Thanks for the bottle Jordan!

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 6, 2006 Botle Pours a clear light amber with slight orangeinsh hue. Very small head and only a thin ring that makes a valiant attempt at lacing down the side as I tip each sip back. Aroma of faint light grains, some sweet fruity notes, honey maybe. Flavor is sweet woody and the ABV comes though a bit. I am used to the style being a bit darker. Fine fairly soft carbonation and a slightly sweet malt trailer. very easy on the bittering. Not bad. Thanks to Buck Dich for this one Drew (2409), Kent, Ohio, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 23, 2004 Brian went on vacation halfway across the nation and brought back this fine libation which caused me great discombobulation. The darker gold body didn’t pour much of a head, but had great lacing. Aroma is mostly sweet. Sweet honey malts with a generous hop ending. The palate is grainy like your granny after she’s had a few too many. Thanks Brian
