Yuengling Bock
1 Mar
Name – Yuengling Bock
Country – United States
Type – Bock
Appearance – Poured a very dark red that bordered on brown color. Very bubbly off white head that disappears very quickly.
Smell – Roasted malts and a bit of nut.
Taste – Roasted and sweet malt flavors with a hint of nuts and spices. There is an ever so slight hop profile there.
Being from Pennsylvania I was very excited to hear that Yuengling would be making the Bock again this year but even more excited that it would be put into bottles as opposed to draft only last year. This is a pretty enjoyable bock overall and will definitely pick up some more before it is gone.
Overall Grade – B
Hey Mike. I agree. Nice flavors and the added PA sentimentality. Was this brewed in Florida, though? Do you know?
I don’t know for sure but I’m going to wager that it was made at the Tampa brewery. They are the larger producer of the two main facilities.
I almost picked this one up, but I passed on it. I also saw their Porter. Have you tried that? Gotta say they have great prices.
I only had the Porter when I was in PA. We don’t get it down here but I hear we might soon. It’s really good in my opinion. I definitely say pick up the porter.
