jaybee Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) Just curious if there are any other consumers of the winter seasonal Genesee Bock Beer. I'm a buyer of large quantities each year. My favorite. This years batch seems to be off. Not tasting right. At all. Am I the only one ? I'd appreciate any opinions on the 2016 batch of Genny Bock. Many thanks everybody. Edited January 27, 2016 by jaybee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Can't vouch for that, but I recently had a few Genny Salted Caramel Chocolate Porters. Very yummy & not priced like a Genny at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Jim Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I peed in the River when I was back a few months ago. Maybe that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryCletus Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I can't believe people actually drink anything Genny.... Let alone plaster it on a public forum for all to see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I had some the other night...I usually buy 2 cases each winter. It had a skunky taste...almost like rotting wheat strewn across an icy road covered in vegetable oil used too long. It was a very unique taste and I'm not sure exactly how to describe it.

BringBackFergy Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 ...on second thought, it has a hint of formaldehyde and a cherrywood afterbirth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountryCletus Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Fergy- so what you're saying is that it tasted exactly as You'd expect any Genny product to taste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon mannnn...Genny beer has that light, clean taste that is attributable to the water source used in their recipe...the headwaters of Onondaga Lake are what source this promising seasonal brew. It's just that this year's batch has that soft undercurrent of a fisher found in a trap in mid-October...almost like the aroma of dates and figs that have been dipped in a bottle of pickle juice. Come to think of it...it has hints of a plastic container full of rotting vegetables that someone might eat for lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Jim Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Anyone had this? I found it by chance in a grocery store here in the Bay Area. It's evidently made by Genesee? http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/21092/60077/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
