Nutty and malty, a little roasty in there too, though that could have been from some other beer I had had earlier in the evening. Overall creamy, with a nice finish. weeare138 (936), Collegeville, Pennsylvania, USA

Appears a transparent gold with a small white head that quickly fades out. Scattered lacing is left around the glass.
Smell is of light caramel, pils malt graininess, mild nuts, and citrus notes.
Taste is of the mentioned aromas, along with a light creamyness that comes through in the gentle, sweet flavors.
Mouthfeel is smooth, medium bodied, decently carbonated, and citrusy. hopdog (5612), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA

Poured a deeper orange color with a small sized head. Aromas of nuts and all around malty. Tastes of light caramel and nuts. stison42 (318), Blacksburg, Virginia, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 14, 2006 Had this on tap at Hampton Fall Fling with Brewmaster Andy and City of Hampton, Mayor Ross A. Kearney, II. Great guys, excellent brew. Clear brownish-copper brew, small tan head. Very light aroma of malt and notes of nuts, and some raisins. When you hear the word bock you expect some warmth but this baby takes warmth to the extreme. THE perfect brew for this outdoor fall fest with clear sunny skies and temps in the upper 50’s. A bit fizzy, not bad, nutty flavor. Not a big alcohol taste but it sure let me know it was there, especially after the second serving. Clean finish. hopscotch (5528), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Oct 5, 2006 Bottle... Clear, copper lager with a small, fizzy, off-white head. Malty nose with notes of maple, praline and dark raisins. Sweet, malty flavor. Peppery, earthy hops don’t quite restrain the heavy sweetness. I like ’em malty, but not cloyingly sweet. Full-bodied and lightly oily with lively carbonation. Sweet, then grassy finish. SynergyXJ (506), Blacksburg, Virginia, USA

I liked the aroma at first, but started to form a distaste as I finished. Malty and nutty flavor as well. Not very smooth. Ron (1036), Rochester, New York, USA
