30th Anniversary- Charlie, Fred And Ken's Bock
A - Clear amber with little lacing left on glass. Poured with a great foamy 2 finger head that lasted about half way through. S - Smell is distant and takes a backseat to the other characteristics of the beer. Some dark malt notes but overall it's subtle. T - A slight sting of alcohol hits first then is immediately followed by a deep malt character. There's a really nice hop presence that helps balance this beer out. The taste seems to grow maltier as the beer warms. M - It's moderately light on the palate and coats the mouth well. D - Very easy to drink. The carbonation really helps this beer's drinkability. It's not hard for me to have a couple of these beers. Overall, a very nice helles bock.
