Bottle: Clear copper pour with lots of bubbles and a finger of foamy sand colored head. A dry, soapy lager malt smell permeates my nose. Not setting the stage well to warrant finishing the glass. However the first sip is better than expected. A bit of sweet caramel and toffee up front. As the flavor swirls and finished up a bland, grassey, lager malt thing takes over. Shit, for a moment I thought this might work. I can’t overly slam this brew because it really isn’t that bad. Just a bit of a tease, that’s all.

Bottle. Poured hazy orange with thick lasting white head. Faint citrus aroma with a whiff of coriander. A little more coriander in the rather bland and flat flavour. Almost no finish, a bit of hop and that’s it.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a red-brown color with a medium sized tan head that faded fairly quickly. The aroma was sour and tangy with notes of coffee, chocolate and wood. The flavor was dryish, tangy and lightly fruity with hints of wood, roasty malts, caramel and smoke. The finish was long, dry, fruity and woody. Nice.

pours dark copper with thin beige head. Aroma has good notes of malts and caramel, remains very one dimensional. Taste, plenty of toasted malts with caramel aplenty with light hoppy plaate toward the finish. Crisp and drinkable. Much better than the rest of commercial Leinenkugels beers.

Bottle. Poured red brown with thick lasting white head. Faint aroma of malt, grass and something else. Fairly thin flavour, a little malt and a little caramel. Not much finish, a bit of caramel. Not a loser, but....

Pour is a clear amber with a average white head. Aroma is mosty sweet malt and not much else. Flavor has again a very sweet malt to it but a touch of hops do come out at the end. Nothing really wrong with it just a bland boring lager.

Location: 12 oz Bottle from Gilly's Feb '09
Overall Impression: Decent enough I guess, a little too sweet for my tastes. Not bad, but not great. Middle of the road beer, middle of the road score.

Smell is a little sweet. Good looking sparkling rootbeer appearance. Nice rocky tan head. Fairly mild for a bock but it comes across as enjoyable to this lager lover. Palate is somewhat thin and the sparkling carbonation does not carry over from appearence to mouth feel, somewhat flat. Refreshing burned something hiding in the background. Surprizingly, has an american dark lager appeal to it. Fairly well behaved and gentleman like. Finish has a tad of caroub or choco malt in there. Well controlled an mildly pleasant. I think I like these friendly dunkler bocks.
