Beer isn't free...

A Wednesday brew: Anchor Brewing Co.’s Anchor Bock Beer

Another great bock for a beautiful Wednesday afternoon.

Pours with a large fluffy cloud-like head that unfortunately disappears pretty quickly, the color is a deep, dare I say beautiful mahogany. Smell is very malty and caramely. Taste is very smokey and tobacco-ish with some pleasantly sweet caramel notes on the backside — this is a very malty brew, but very nice also. When this beer warmed up it was very nice to drink, had an extremely pleasant mouthfeel, one where you just kinda swish it around in your mouth a while before you swallow it.

Really a great, albeit very rich beer. It would be a perfect beer to have on tap on a slightly breezy spring afternoon.

Get it while you can at the Co-op, as a seasonal it is only available from February to April — I’d wager a guess that what is in stock is all that is left.
