Rating from notes. Consumed November 2013. "Great looking bock with stellar aromas and a velvety palate, but I expected bolder flavours from this one. Still, worth trying IMO."

This is a strong brew from my recollection. I love the thick, malty syrup feel of it. I recall one night having consumed 3 and thought, "Uh oh...I forgot to have dinner..." but I was pleasantly full.
I miss this brew. Last I heard it was discontinued, but I saw a recent review so I am hopeful. I was overseas for 2 years and haven't had too much luck finding it here in San Antonio. Checked HEB, Specs, local liquor stores...no luck.
Is it still out there?

Bottle from On the Fly Gasmart. Clear brown pour with medium foamy beige head. Very sweet malty aroma, tree nuts, wood, peat. Taste increases the sweetness, slick, almost syrupy feel. Slightly woody, bitter finish.
