[1] Review by lenusik from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (11/25/2008 9:24:07 PM)
"The thing that strikes me about this beer first is that the label was very simple, looked like something you would find at a dollar store to put around your beer cozy. The aroma was a nice malt backbone, with some hoppish hints. The flavour was sweet caramel malt with candy apple hints. Good, but there are better bocks."

[2] Review by cyrenaica from Milton, Ontario, Canada who has tried this beer once. (8/26/2008 7:57:11 PM)
"2008 Edition
341 ml bottle
6.2% ABV
I tried this beer on August 26, 2008 at “Smokeless Joe’s” in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a reddish brown with a thin white head. The aroma was sweet malt. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, aith medium carbonation. The flavour was sweet malt, with a definite bitterness in the finish. A good beer, but not a great beer.

[3] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (4/4/2007 7:20:40 PM)
"Bottle from the brewery day of release.
Poured a clear dark cola brown into the glass with a whispy 2 finger off white cap.
Aromas of toasty malts, bready, nutty and some dried fruit.
Medium body, smooth bready drinkable charcater, silky mouth feel.
Up front a wonderful chew on a thick mixture of toasty Munich and Vienna malts..nuts, sweet dough, toast..wunerbar! This mellows midpalate as the Hallertauer, Tettnanger and Perle hops lightly balance and provide a woody-herbal tone to the complex maltiness and leads into the finish which is wet, lightly sweet ( but not cloying), bready with nice herbal under tones and a bittering after taste...a very well constucted Dunkler Bock in the Bavarian fashon...spring is just as good as a time to quaff this dark Germanic elixer.
Prosit! Nickel Brook, another winner!"
