Smoked Bock pours a dark reddish brown color, with a long lasting head. The smell is very smokey. The taste is very smokey, and has a meat like flavor, very similar to a smoked bacon, a bit salty. Good full flavor, very full bodied; not watery at all. Overall a very strong smoked beer, nothing crazy different but very strong example of this style.

Jan 2018 batch , 5.7 ABV, 24.5 IBU, You have let this beer warm up some for it to smooth-in out and then the flavors come out.
Nice dark amber color. Nice white head leaves some lacing.
Smell, I can't smell much today as usual
taste starts out with smoke, a somewhat bacony smoke. The smoke fades to a nice sweet caramel on the finish. There maybe a little hop notes half way thru. It almost seems like the beer was krausened, kind a odd, if you drink it too cold it will have a bite y pilsner flavor near the start. It's not a hardcore smoke bomb which ok with me
But Really it's a smokey caramel bock.

This beer pours a clear amber color. The head was one finger, and white and frothy.
The nose has got a light smoke aroma. Very pleasing.
The taste is very smoke forward, and lingers. It goes from the throat to the nose.
The feel is fairly full bodied.
I am a big fan of somked beers, and this is a good one. Glad I got it.

4.28/5 rDev +5.7%

Had it on tap at Bernie's Tap Room in Wisconsin. Served in a 22 ounce Lazy Monk logo glass.
a - brownish with a tinge of red
s - Heavy malt with acidity popping out of the steady carbonation. Also roasted meat with a little smokiness
t - Heavy malt with some nice hoppiness to balance it out. Interesting hints of smoked bacon along with dried fruit . The smokiness fades into the background the more you drink.
m - Very full bodied with a fair amount of carbonation. This is a puzzler as to the amount of alcohol. Great session beer but the alcohol is not really noticeable with all this flavor. I would guess it is about 6.5% abv
overall - Great beer that I would make a special trip to seek out. Perfect paired with food especially barbecue, fried food or burgers.
