Leinenkugel 1888 Bock, a luscious brew, originally created to serve lumberjacks, will be available for all who want to try its excellent boutique of Caramel, Pale and two-row Chocolate malts. Cluster hops add a touch of citrus character and when combined with Munich malts and a 20- to 25-day cold lagering process, you have a truly timeless beer.

Pour is a dark brown with a large tan head. Aroma is caramel malts with some roasted nuts. Flavor is light on the malts with more on the creamyness. This is just ok as it does not offend and is easy to drink.

12 ounce bottle brought to me by a friend vacationing in Wisconsin. Thanks! Pours a clear ruby color with a medium off-white head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma is very grainy with some roasty notes. Taste is green apple, sweaty graininess and some toasted malts and caramel. There’s some bad and some good here. Medium bodied.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a small off white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is a fruity malt with raisin and caramel. Decent spotty lacing on the glass. The tastse is a roasted malt with chocolate and a grain malt finihs. A decent dunkle from Leinenkugels.

Clearish red-brown body, thin off-white head. Sweet sugar water/caramel/brown sugar nose, thin, with hints of butterscotch. Sugary body with sharp, prickly carbonation, with light notes of toast, candy corn, and brown sugar. Thin, watery, blah.

draft - Pours dark amber and has a mild caramel malt aroma. There’s a nutty toasted caramel malt flavor. It’s sweet and there might be a hint of hops in there. Unfortunately this beer was too bland. I’ll have to agree with the general ho-hum reaction of most raters here.

Bottle. Dark amber/copper body, clear with a small, but lasting ivory, fizzy head. Aroma of burnt malts, nuts, caramel. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly sweet with an off-putting tartness. Light to medium body with a watery texture. Fizzy carbonation. I expected a richer beer with lighter roasting of the malts.

12oz bottle. Deep filtered amber brown color. Mellow sweet aroma. Light hop balance, with a solid malty taste. Certainly unexceptional, being a little too thin and watery for the style. Some decent fruity Bock tastes with a Dunkel-like mellow sweetness. Sessionable, but not one I’d recommend.
