how I love thee. I just bought some today for the hell of it, just to try it out. Now I'm in love...tastes so good.


Anybody else tried it? I also like the Ultra Dark Amber...but this Amber Brock is good.

isn't it Amber Bock?
I bought it once and used it in a pot roast recipe. it turned into a good gravy, but I didn't much like the beer itself. I'm not really into dark beers.

I don't know what you have available in NC, but a couple to check out might be Sierra Nevada Pale Ale or Fat Tire. I have boundless suggestions, but most of them are local only. h:

Sierra is ok...it has a weird, kind of clove taste to it, though.

Should have read the label before drinking it, might not have added the r...


That's a pretty poor excuse for a dark beer (Michelob Amber Bock that is). Bock is just the bottom of the vat tailings that are left over from a season of brewing, you need a good product in the beginning to make a good bock.
