Chocolate Bock Sam Adams reminds me of Hershey's

I was going to utilize one of the two Japanese beers David returned with from Japan, but I had four coworkers over last night for Beatles Rock Band and Derek, who continues to piss excellence, brought a Sam Adams Winter Seasonal pack, which is something every beer drinking human should pick up. It's great for a party and we were able to split them up and sample a wide variety of beers. The Chocolate Bock was advertised as a brand new brew and I couldn't resist postponing Japan. Sorry but not sorry. 

Like Batman, Derek's true identity remains a mystery
So, we all did and ate silly things as a child. One of my deep dark fat kid secrets is as a young buck, I routinely drank Log Cabin Lite Maple Syrup and Hershey's Chocolate Syrup straight out of the bottle when my mom wasn't looking. It was from that point on, I knew I would always have a drinking problem.

The Chocolate Bock is Hershey Syrup's brother from another mother - but his skinny brother because it's surprisingly light bodied like a Shiner Bock Black. I suppose you could say the moral of this experience is to not judge a Bock by its color you narrow-minded BEER RACIST, because the few I've had are dark like a stout but not very filling.

I'm not a huge fan of CB, but it's not a terrible beer. Recognizing it's hard to make a chocolate beer and they're few and far between, this is worth a sample but not a six pack. ARMAGEDDON rating
