Thanks to Goldtwins for this one! Small head over a dark amber brew. Honey and maple with a bready, cookie aroma. Lightly sweet but lacking any real depth of flavor with a watery palate. Not really bad, just plain and boring.

Translucent brown pour with thin head. The aroma is sweet with a tartness on the side that is probably the alcohol. The flavor starts sweet - malts and caramel - and stays sweet throughout giving an impression of plum and an aftertaste of overripe banana. Yet there are hints of roasted malts and a bit of spice. And a slight bitter hop taste at the end. The alcohol is also evident in the finish. Thin body and moderate carbonation. If Celebrator is the standard for this style, then Butt Head is below that in balance and complexity. Still an above average beer.

This is good. Very much like Full Sail Boardhead or Lagunitas Brown Shugga. I am surprised they call it a bock; they might have called it an ale or a barleywine. This beer is opaque and brown. The head lasts as a thing ring, and there is a lot of sediment, especially for a style that so often has little or no sediment at all. There is an aroma of brown sugar, citrus-hops, and fermenting orange juice. Flavor is very sweet, but this has only a hint of the standard bock carmel and sweet malt. Instead, there is more sugar and fruit. Fairly thick. Quite good, especially for the low price, but not very bocky.
