A German Bock for a Good Cause

Tennessee Brew Works expands its park-friendly beer lineup with Head of the Crow, a German-style Bock that's part of a themed 12-pack launching in July 2026 to celebrate America's 250th anniversary. This release continues the brewery's partnership with Tennessee State Parks, which since 2017 has raised nearly $70,000 to support local trails, wheelchair-accessible upgrades, and educational programs.

The Beer

Head of the Crow is a classic German Bock, a style celebrated for its full body and rich malt character. This beer delivers a balanced profile of pale malt and toasty notes, with subtle caramel undertones that add complexity. The finish is soft with gentle bitterness, characteristic of this traditional German style.

Tasting Notes

The nose presents pale malt and toasty aromas. On the palate, these malty and toasty characteristics continue, complemented by caramel notes. The finish is soft with a subtle bitterness that rounds out the profile.

Where to Find It

The variety 12-pack hits retail just before the 4th of July and is available at Tennessee Brew Works' Nashville and Lenoir City taprooms, state park golf courses, and concession stands. It's an excellent choice for beer enthusiasts who appreciate German classics while supporting Tennessee's conservation efforts.
