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.

Serving type: growler

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.

Serving type: on-tap
