bottle, thanks to bu11zeye, amber color with decent tan foam, aroma is nutty and dry, flavor has a bready nuts and caramel taste

(30cl bottle) Pours a clear deep amber body with a medium beige head. Aroma of caramel, plum, brown sugar, and raisins. Flavor of caramel, raisins, bread, and toffee.

Bottle from bu11zeye. Brown pour with a small head. Aroma is malty, a little dark fruit, and kinda sweet. Taste is roasted, a little chocolate, a little bread and a metallic finish.

330ml bottle - thanks to Bu11zeye. Pours reddish brown with a small amount of head. Aromas of malt and bread. Slightly sweet taste, roasted malts with a bit of hop bite in the end. I was rather pleased with this as i’ve only had Amstel Light from this brewery. A tasty bock.

Red brown. Taste is like with so many bocks, bit too sweet with some mostly malty aroma. Luckily there is a little bit earth and sour flavours to save the beer.

Had this is September of 2009 on tap in Amsterdam. A very pleasant experience!

Bottle: Light brown foamy head on top of a dark redish brown beer. Smell is lightly toasted malts, hints of caramel, spices and some (dark) fruits. Taste is a fine mix of toasted/roasted malts, caramel, bitter, light fruity and spicy with a dark and bitter aftertaste to it.

On tap at the Old Bell, Amsterdam. Clear dark red brown beer, massive tan head. Soft palate. Semi sweet malt, slightly minerally. A little cream. Ok but bland.

Pretty much one of the best supermarket bocks. Roast, caramel, sweet. Bit syrupy mouthfeel.
