Oct 23, 2007 Pours amber with a one-finger white head. Great toffee and light grainy, earthy hop aroma. A little heat in the nose. Sweet, malty flavor. Some nuttiness. The alcohol comes through a little too much on the end; maybe a touch more hoppiness would take care of that. Or maybe just make it a bit weaker. Still, definitely worth a shot. One of the few decent American Bocks.
