[1] Review by Phishpond417 from Madtown, Wisc, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/10/2008 5:38:55 PM)
"Pours a semi clear brown colour with a small thin nutty tan head. Somewhat malty in the initial taste but midpalate evolves into a more satisfying yet average bock representation. nutty, with roasted malts and carmelly toasted taste. "

[2] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (11/14/2006 6:21:00 PM)
"Lovely dark copper color with some ruby highlights.
A brisk pour leaves a fluffy tan sticky 3 finger cap that lasts and laces well.
Aroma is more biased to the cocoa-coffee tones with some sweet bread dough under this...nice..smells like a rich dunkel.
Moderate malt spine, medium bodied, soft mouth feel with a persistant dryish coffee-cocoa charater.
Profile: Up front a tad sweet with maltose but this vanishes instantly as a rush of hops and astringent black patent malt "char" dry up the sweetness in the malts...nice silky middle where the body becomes chocolatey and mellow...drying finish with plenty of mocha-semisweet cocoa notes which drain off into a chocolate-bready aftertaste.
A decent all malt commercial single bock meant for those who like more than one of these husky dark lagers. If I lived back in Calagay again I’d have this in the fridge all the time in stead of a dunkel...very drinkable single bock with a dunkel flavor profile.
Very reminiscent of Creemore UrBock but with more pronounced flavors.

[3] Review by beercronicshero from Edmonton, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/23/2006 5:15:53 PM)
"Pours a brown looking color with a off-white/slightly tan 2 finger foamy head that descipated very quickly, seconds not minutes. left absolutely 0 lace, non to be seen... ANYWHERE... Aroma was caramel, butter & roasted malts. The taste was of weak malts and some slight caramel, not much goin on for the tastebuds with this one. Mouthfeel is weak and thin, there is some slight hoppiness in the aftertaste, but not a while lot. glad i didnt buy this but instead got pawned on me by Beercronic... not that good of a bock!!"

[4] Review by spencer from Eagle River, WI, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (3/20/2006 11:57:28 PM)
"If you're looking for a medium bock at an affordable price then this is worth a try. A far cry from some of the thick & chewy bocks, this pours medium brown with a decent nose...the head was thin, the flavor was good. Again, for the price this is a good beer."

[5] Review by Timmyk77 from Overland Park, KS, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/19/2005 11:05:40 PM)
"Pours a dark amber with a thin white head. Pleasant malty aroma. Flaovor is a nice balance of malts and hops, but there is just not enough of it. Not the best bock beer out there, but not horrible. Won't make any special effort to get it."
