Leinenkugel 1888 Bock
Submitted by The Consumer’s Corner Blog
I just picked up Leinenkugel’s 1888 Bock. This brewery known for their simple, straightforward beers and this 1888 Bock is no exception.
This beer pours a clear copper with a tan head that disappears with big bubbles and no lacing. It smells of sweet malt, a bit of caramel, and a hint of nuttiness. It tastes like roasted malts and a bit of light bitters. The body is thin and heavily carbonated. It is simple and easy drinking with only the yeast flavor lingering in the finish.
This beer is a good beer, but lacks character in maltiness and complexity compared to other winter beers like Sam Adams Winter Lager. It is another smooth and light beer from Leinenkugel. I paid $6.49 for a 6-pack. Mildly recommended.
