Genesee Bock poured a clear, reddish brown color with a finger width, off white head.  The aroma has some depth, with a biscuity malt aroma.  The body is smooth and malty with some caramel sweetness.  The finish lacks a little, with a faint yeasty dryness.  There was some hanging lace left on the glass.  Overall, this is an average beer.  It has some nice malty flavor, but the body is a little thin and could use some hop balance to counter the sweetness.  Genesee releases this beer seasonally and it is a regional favorite as well as being one of the best budget beers out there.
