Genesee Bock Beer Special Edition, from Genesee!

Our take on the 16th century German legend has turned out to be a legend in its own right. For every spring since 1951, our brewery has carefully crafted and lagered Genesee Bock Beer. The result is an exceptionally hearty, full-flavored beer with a slight malty finish—and a perfect way to celebrate the snow melt.

Can. Really disappointed with this one. Started off great. Nice pretty ruby amber color. Aroma smelled like the can. Tasted like a cross between PBR and Killians. Not good.

12 oz. can from Tops in Lewiston, NY. Pours a crystal clear amber color with a tiny off white head and poor retention. No lacing. No aroma at all either. Tastes like carbonated caramel water. Thin, watery body and mouthfeel. Light caramel sweetness and grain. No bitterness. Not much going on here.

Can labeled Spring Bock: Dinner roll and graham cracker nose, honey highlights. Clear copper, medium head. Honey, bread. Dried leaf finish. Medium body, easy carbonation. Probably the best beer I've had from this brewery. Very enjoyable.

Amber body, thin white head. Wood and toast aroma. Malty taste, somewhat sweet with a bit of smoke? Tin from co-worker

12 oz can from Wegmans. Clear amber pour, small off white creamy head . Malty aroma, woody, minor sweetness. Taste concentrates on the malts, some caramel, light sweet notes. Nothing too fancy, but solid.

From old tasting notes. Translucent medium dark brown color with a foamy tan head. Faint roasted malt nose reminiscent of baked beans. Ligh sweet roasted malt flavor upfront. Middle flattens out and tends to be slightly salty. Finish is toasted mal and light hops. A decent cheap Bock beer.

Can: Clear, copper-brown with a huge, frothy tan head. Caramel, nutty, woody aroma. Taste is sweet caramel malt, toasted nutty malts.... Feels pretty light, but has a pleasant, easy flavour. Pretty good.
