Dundee Pale Bock Lager:
Howdy all and before we go on I wanted you to know that I won’t be fooled this time by a Dundee beer.  After the whole high hopes of Crocodile Dundee owned/brewed beer was dashed, I approach this Pale Bock Lager with skepticism and low expectations.  The beer pours a mellow golden color with noticeable carbonation and a “micro-bubble” head of foam that nosily moves up and then back down and a subtle nose of bready malts a touch of hops.  The beer’s initial taste is a very even and mellow malt with a carbonation fizz that is more akin to a champagne than a beer and really that’s about it save for a lingering booze taste that shows up briefly on the back end.  Not that enjoyable but not that offensive either (how this got a 90 on Beer Advocate is beyond me), it’s probably the closest thing we have had here in the beer review world that had no determinable flavor.  Not my cup tea nor pint of beer for that matter, I’ve tasted it and now I’m done with it.
