Imperial American Bock Shmaltz Bock Bock has spent months in a blend of bourbon barrels, including Jim Beam, Heaven Hill, and Buffalo Trace. Barrel-aged Bock Bock gains its toasty, rich malt body and nutty caramel flavor from distinctive European malts, such as Vienna, Munich and Crystal, to make a traditional bock base.

Poured up on tap at Angel’s Trumpet where it exhibits a clear copper body that supports a thin light tan head. The aroma offers up inviting molasses, brown sugar, caramel malts and then sweet dark fruity esters like prunes and figs. Nice. The taste delivers an initial soft palate before some booze and brighter raisin and plum notes hit and head toward midway. It picks a dash of hotness into the finish as the raisins esters and booze again brighten up the experience. Overall I am enjoying this as it has an English barleywine like aroma to it as well as a smooth sipping profile. Cool brew.

Bocks aren't one of my favorite styles...but I enjoy a clean quality one. Shmaltz rarely disappoints. Semi-creamy texture, with some heavy malty/bready and bourbon flavors. Mildly hopped to cut down the sweetness a bit. Semi-cloudy medium brown appearance with an off-white head. This is one that I'd get again.

Pours clear chestnut with a fairly thick light tan head. Strong aroma has notes of caramel, toasted malt, and pomme fruit. Bourbon-soaked wood comes forth in the flavor and takes over the show but lets the caramel, toasted malt and fruity tones share the stage. Body is firm and strong, while fizz is subtle but lasting and finish is fruity, woody and bourbony. (Bourbony? Is that a word?) Don’t be chicken - this bock rocks!
