So on Tuesday Yuengling released their Bock beer and on Friday I received a six pack from Uncle Cones in Minersville on Westwood St. If you haven't ever been to Cones you should go. For many years now its been the place I go when friends and family come to town. Its a nice small town bar that has pool and darts along with breakfast some mornings. If you need more information about this fantastic establishment just ask and I'll tell you everything I know. So last night and again tonight I sat down and had a Yuengling Bock beer along with some chips and salsa both night and some tahini pasta (the recipe and the links for both will be at the end). The temperature came in at a nice 37.3 degrees with an average head at 2 1/2" and a frothy off-white head appearance. The head lacing was excellent and the head dissipated slowly. The carbonation was lively with normal clarity and an amber color. The aroma and taste were a mixture of citrus and barley with an average finish length and watery mouth feel. The tongue hit was towards the front with excellent body lacing. Overall I would give this beer an A part because I love everything Yuengling makes and its from my home town. I also rate this so high because its like lager with a kick to it and yet nothing over powering. It just has a great taste. Yuengling Bock beer is a seasonal brew that should be available until around Easter of this year. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.
