Bottle (courtesy of MaxF): Deep golden to orangey coloured, a bit unclear, moderate to solid bisquity-grainy nose with a solid hoppy backbone and tinge of alcohol; really robust sweet-bitter flavour, medium to full bodied; powerful sweet-bisquity and aromatic-hoppy finish. Superb Bock, extremely well balanced from - You guessed it - Franconia........

(draught at the brewpub, as Bayer Fastenbock) Hazy, light-amber colour with a firm but short and slightly off-white foamy head. Aroma of cara-malt, cookies, bread and a tinge of herbal hops. Moderately sweet flavour a balanced level of bitterness, quite full bodied with a soft carbonation. Cara-malty base with notes of biscuits and present herbal accents; dry-out effect towards the bitter and herbal hoppy also slightly alcoholic finish. Hoppy and moreish pale Bock. 17.IV.11
