Location: 12 oz bottle from Colonial Wine and Spirits, 3/27/12

Aroma: A rather sweet nose, malts, some apple, bread, and some sort candied sugary sweetness
Appearance: It pours a mostly clear golden color with a small white head and some spotty lacing
Flavor: Taste is heavy sweet, the components are the same as the nose, with a grain/bread finish
Palate: The body is medium, it has a slightly cloying, smooth feel, and just a hint of heat on the finish
Overall Impression: I didn't love this one. They were a little heavy handed with the sweetness for my taste, and there was something fake sugary about the feel that also took away from it for me. Overall, this wasn't terrible, but it certainly wasn't for me.

On tap. Pours with a clear orange body with a tan ring. Aroma is toasty and caramel. Taste is diacetyl, caramel and candy corn. Some flavors that remind me of milk. Light bubbles. Not as good as most of Sudwerk’s German style offerings.

Thanks for DarkElf for the recommendation! Golden, bright and sparkling. Big malt nose is very clean. Fat malty, bready palate is clean and rich. A little bit of dryness makes this "moreish", to steal a phrase from Jackson. Very good.

Aroma of malt, maybe backed by hop; alcohol seems present. Orangy gold color (not my idea of copper) with a white head that leaves. Medium mouthfeel. Definite start of sweet malt, and it is malt with character. Moves on with a bit of spice, leaves the mouth a bit atingle. The malt tends to stay on into the finish, and there is not really enough hop to balance this. Pretty good. One of the better lagers I’ve had in some time.

Bottle pours a light golden with a large white head that had amazing lasting power. Spotty lacing. Light malts that are a bit paler than I expectedfrom a Bock. Flavor was light and a bit sweet, lacking some of the darker notes I expected. Body was medium, softly carbonated and a pleasant finish.
