Handwritten notes: I had this can of Faxe Bock sitting around the fridge for a long time. You see, beer tasting to me is a lot like opening presents, or taking STD tests. I like to be surprised. Even if a beer sticks to its script, I like to note little differences that differentiate the brands. I just knew that this would be a plain old Bock. And it was. It has a sherry like sweetness with a back of the throat tang. It’s a good Bock, don’t get me wrong. I’m not sayin’… I’m just sayin’.
