Michelob Amber Bock

Well, today is Saturday and any good college student knows what that means. Saturday IS football. And any good male college student knows that means BEER.

In fact, today is Celebration of Man at my Fraternity. Since none of you can relate to that, I will elaborate. There are 5 TVs in the living room with a different football game on each. There is a dick ton of beer here, and plenty of bratwurst, salsa, chips, beef, and more beer.

So at the moment I am drinking an Amber Bock from Michelob. It pours a very deep brown amber color (the label on the neck of the bottle also states this) and a GREAT head with decent retention. Aroma is extremely sweet and malty; even the hops are aromatic and add a slight floral scent. It is well carbonated, maybe a little too much, but it is not overpowering. Flavor is malty and sweet, with a very slick mouthfeel; almost lubricating. It is slightly bitter as it slides down the rear of the tongue, but aftertaste is almost lacking of any bitterness whatever.

The donut I ate just before this beer didn't go particularly well with it, but it wasn't bad.
