austone (305), Turku; Pori, Finland Apr 3, 2008 Dark ruby brown, quite thick off-white head. Nose has rye & roasted malts, light smoky notes. Flavor is syrupy malts, tobacco and raisins. Finishes dry with balancing bitterness. Medium to full bodied, sticky palate. A bit tangy carbonation. Surprisingly full & nicely bitter bock. Bov (4604), Bienne, Switzerland Mar 12, 2008 courtesy of oh6gdx - clear ruby-brown colour with a solid pale beige foam; aroma of caramel and biscuit; full-bodied, sweet and malty; a decent bitterness and a long malty caramelish aftertaste - not bad jacob_wennbom (254), Uppsala, Sweden Mar 9, 2008 Smells a bit like boiled vegetables and butterscotch. Sweet and a bit unbalanced in taste, notes of boiled ham. Not a favourite. bierkoning (4691), La Tropica, Netherlands Feb 4, 2008 Bottle from Tbone_, thanks!
