Highly rated but I'm not quite sure why. I found little aroma, a confused palate and a bit weak flavor. It has some fruityness and earthy yeast and malt flavors but lacks something. Just not an exciting brew.

This seems to be a Dunkel, and not a bock or doppelbock, as the description claims. Caramely, roasted aroma lifts from the dark brown, tan-headed body. Flavor is a rich medley of rich, sweet caramely malts that subsides to roasted bitter notes and a dry finish. A very well-done dunkel, or, a very well-done atypical bock.

Beautiful deep brown with a tan head and a stale malty brown nose. Seemed flat from the nose but this was far from it. The body with rich, creamy and sweet. Smooth malty finish. This was also a nice surprise this evening.

A deliciously earthy bock; beautiful color and cloudiness - slightly spicy, super caramelly, full palate but still crisp - far and away the best Bock I've ever had. Quality is written all over this. Warms to perfect balance. Bottle-conditioned lagers RULE!

Pours a dark amber color with a good light tan head. Aroma is very malty with some bock yeasty nose. Pretty smooth palate is mostly sweet with a well balanced bitterness in the finish. Lots of caramel maltiness throughout. A pretty good bock that hides its alcohol well.

2/23/0?/:Deep,cedar,colored beer. Huge,head,great lace. Big malty,smokey,toasty,lightly hoppy nose. Smells very rich and fresh.Thick mouthfeel,just a touch,too much,carbonation. Sweet(toffee,raisins,rye bread)malty,flavors. Just a litte acidity(bottle conditioned lager)from the yeast,is not very pleasent. Finish is smooth,bready,with huge toffee notes,a trace of smoke and oxidation. Not extremely complex,but damn good,in my book.

aroma of rasins, malt and alcohol. deep ruby body. malt flavor-thinner tasting than expected (although, not in a bad way). no alcohol bite noticed. wonderfully executed.

Big fat malty bock. Sweet with a nice finish. Dark amber brown body, medium head and good lacing.
