Here is part of something I wrote on another thread just 20 minutes ago:

Index-time boosts are encoded inside the field norms. You should see a
difference inside each field norm. If you have omitted norms, then you will
not have any boosts on that field. The field norm is also lossly since it
uses only 1-byte. Some of the many reasons to switch from document time
boosts.

There is no reason to use both document boosts and custom scores. If you
are already using a score function, just apply the boost at that level.
Either way, you will not see the boost value directly.
