Deep brown color with a slightly red tint and foamy off-white head - a mouth-watering, explosive aroma of caramel, toffee, maple syrup, grain and nuttiness - medium bodied with a somewhat tingly mouthfeel - sweet, but moderately grainy and hoppy, giving it a kind of breakfast cereal with honey in it kind of flavor - finished a little thin and alcoholic - something different that’s worth a shot, but the aroma is as good as it gets.

A light orange beer with a fine but disappearing white head. The aroma is very flowery. The flavor is sweet flowery with notes of caramel, leading to a hoppy end. I’m surprised how little malty this beer is.

A red-brown beer with a fine but disappearing off-white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of roasted malt, caramel and nuts. The flavor is very roasted with notes of nuts as well as some burnt notes - I pick up more honey notes than maple sirup. The body is thin.

An orange beer with a fast disappearing beige head. The aroma is like an ale with notes of oranges and lemon. The flavor is strong of lemon grass with wheat lingering in the background.

[Butt Head Bock] The aroma is very sweet with notes of alcohol and hints of alcohol. The color is brown and it has a small diappearing brown head. The flavor is sweet and rather hoppy with notes of roasted malt and alcohol running over the tongue, which warms. The mouthfeel ís smooth. [Tommyknocker Bockfest] Vintage 1996 sampled 2004. The Bockfest is a retired seasonal made by adding Rum and Allspice to the Butt Head Bock, but otherwise the specs are the same. A hazy red beer with a disappearing head. The aroma is of spices, where cinnamon stands out. The flavor is dusty combined with notes of oranges and spices - it definately tastes a little old. The body is a little thin - amazing of such a strong beer - even though it is 8 years old. [7/4/5/2/12]

Much better than the Maple Nut Brown they "Imperialized". Dark brown color with a thick oatmeal-colored head and nice lacing. Roasty, malty, nutty aroma. Full-bodied and sweet with toasted malt, maple and caramel flavors. Hops and well-masked alcohol present too. The finish is toasted malt with a touch of hops and spice. This is actually a very good session ale despite the ABV. A nice surprise from a normally below-average brewer.

Dark brown coloured body with no head at all. Aroma of alcohol, scotch, caramel, roasted malt and plentiful nuts. Full-bodied; Super nuttiness in the taste with malt and caramel running through. Aftertaste shows a bittering quality and a very unpleasant nuttiness. Overall, much stronger and unbalanced than I would imagine. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased at Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia yesterday on 01-January-2005.

Cola coloured body with no head at all. Aroma of raisins, figs, roasted malt and alcohol. Medium-bodied; Strong alcohol/malt flavour roaming around. Aftertaste shows some strong nutty flavours with malt and alcohol very potent. Overall, a decent bock-a bit old, showing some age. Thansk to Jon[R888710] for this one! I sampled this 12 ounce bottle purchased in a package shop in Galveston, Texas on 18-September-2004.
