Notes:

The color is dark with a hint of red. The clarity is perfect I can drink it right out of the bottle, and the head is just right not too much a good layer across the top. The aroma is of the cocoa nibs smells almost like a coffee. The taste is of coffee at first but then the cocoa nibs shine thru. I was thinking this bock would have a little more thickness to texture but overall with the clarity of the beer it makes me very happy. I like this recipe a lot will definately brew it again. My friends that like dark beer say it is my best beer yet.
