Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a lager glass.
The appearance was a copper color with a super quickly receding foamy to bubbly head. No lace.
The aroma had plastic coating some old grassy hops. Acetone? Really? Hmmmmm....not sure where the rest of this is going to go. Slightly worried.
The flavor was metallic and plastic and acetone. Sharp and unpleasant. Aftertaste? I’m afraid to even mention it here.
The feel, hell if I know, I guess light bodied, I think, maybe. Carbonation felt fine, I will give it that.
Overall, just a thought to anyone that’s ever paid attention to my reviews over the years on here. I believe I got this beer for free for a reason and that was to prove that I have always done my best to rate to style for correct reviewing practices and this one, basically takes the cake of totally screwing a person over in their wallet and time. Possibly worst bock ever.

Draft at the brewery, 7/6/15
Copper pour with a thin beige head and drippy lace. Lightly sweet, grain, spice notes, a little bread, some earthy hops. Soft to average carbonation. Good mouthfeel. Slightly dry close.

April 2004. Red amber in colour, with a phenolic paint thinner aroma, cigarette ahes from my ashtray. Vegetable taste, with phenolic farts. Body is OK....this is a perfect example of a beer with all the defaults , so i rated it a bit higher than my colleagues.
