May 8, 2008 Bottle. Pours orange with a white head. Aroma is caramel and toast. Medium body. Flavor is on the lighter side. Malty with a caramel note and a light fruity sweetness. Not bad, just didn’t really do it for me.

Apr 27, 2008 Bottle with hard to remove twist top. Slightly hazy yellow-orange color with dying head. Smells like a hefty lager. Soft carbonation. Body leans toward the full side. Rich taste, more malt than hops, grain and flowers. Long finish. Flavorful lager, leaning more toward early than late spring.

Apr 24, 2008 A nice bock, with caramel and wheat notes amidst a mingling of corn and a touch of light summer fruits.

Apr 15, 2008 Bottle 500 ml ?
Appearance: Light amber with medium creamy, stiff top.
Nose : Mild sweetness of golden malt with soft aromatic hop. 6+
Flavor/Palate : Medium bodied, perhaps a bit this for bock. Mashed malty base, grainy, wholesome with gentle hopping. Quiet simple approach, old straight school. This time that worked, straight drinkable bock. Nicely done gentlemen!

Apr 7, 2008 16oz bottle. Pours a clear copper color with good effervescence and a healthy off-white head. Aroma hits you from a mile away -- heavy on the floral hops with some added hints of yeast, malt, and light spices. Taste is deceptively full and smooth, with a honey-like initial flavor giving way to a long, smooth finish of malt, yeast, and perhaps a bit of molasses. I can’t help but wonder about the widely differing reviews and characterizations of this brew, but I’m a big fan of the one in my hand -- rich and full in character, but light and refreshing in flavor.
