Tommyknocker Butt Head Bock

Hazy amber with a large beige head, spots of lace. Aroma of caramel and alcohol with a cidery edge. Full of malt flavor, caramel, bread, fig, apple cider, cream soda. The sweet caramel lingers the longest into the finish. Not much harmony, alcohol and apples come off a bit harsh. Medium to full body; bright, warming palate.

Bottle. A really fine beer. Compared this one and the Oaked Butt Head Bock at the same time. Oak was better, but not by much. May want the regular kind when drinking several. Oak might be a bit overpowering. Highly recommended.

Pours light brown with a medium-thick tan head. Aroma is caramel and nuts. Wow, taste is a lot better than I was expecting, much fuller mouthfeel...didn’t realize the 8.2% ABV until after the first taste. Pleasantly surprised, rich caramel w/ notes of chocolate, nuts and maybe a little dark cherry. Also some alcohol...moderate bitter hops on the finish. Texture lacks some creaminess and the aftertaste is a little funky, but otherwise a very good dopplebock. Easily the best from Tommy Knocker that I’ve tasted.

Dark red-brown with a loose beige head. Aroma is caramel, nutty, fruity. Taste is super sweet, raisiny fruits, caramel, light cocoa.

Pours deep caramel color with light tan head. Sweet malty aroma. Flavor is sweet caramel malts. Thick mouthfeel with soft carbonation.

POurs a ruby brown with a thin tan head. Nose is a fruity caramel malt. Flavor is all malt, some bubblegum, some cherries, slight tartness, big toasted malt.

Bottle, 355ml - Semi-hazy red brown beer with a small head. Aroma is malty with notes of ripe fruits, nuts and sourish smokey malt. Flavor is malty with notes of canned fruits, peaches and sourish esters. Interesting, but not really good.
