Tap at the brewery - clear amber pour - nose of toffee, roasted nuts, light melanoidin character, a touch of metallic character - low carbonation - fairly creamy texture - mildly acidic to start - medium sweet caramelized sugars are followed by light nuttiness, toasted grain, light metallic notes, light esters - finish is medium dry and moderately bitter - a little sharper/rougher than a bock should be, but not bad.
