3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: FEB 4, 2005 When I tasted it, it was still brewed by Leyerth (Steenberghe) but they are brewing it themselves now. Butterscotch aroma with light spices (is this ginger?). Dark brown color, light brown head, very nice lace. Sweet, light bitter, butterscotch, nice sourness in the finish, little sticky.

Keg, De Bekeerde Suster Oct2003 (contract brewed elsewhere at the time). Deep ruby red, creamy Off white head and moderate condition. Low fruity malt aromas, sweet in the mouth with some fruity berries and a faintly tart edge. A yeastiness develops mingling with the fruitiness in the finish to become bitter sweet.

29th November 2010.
On tap at De Bekeerde Suster, Amsterdam. Clear labelled ’Bock Ros 2010’ - new recipe? Clear brown - red beer. Good creamy tan head. Light soft palate. A little dry. Trace of minerals and then slightly burned toffee. Well integrated in some supressed orangey hop bitterness. Tiny trace of bubblegum sweetness in the finish. Fresh and nicely jioned up. Postscript: Did not notice any ginger in this at all!

Medium beige creamy head. Reddish brown body, slightly hazy. Light fruity wild berry aroma. Sweet wild berry and toffee taste with light roasted notes. Dry hoppy aftertaste, slightly metallic. Very nice! (0.33l draft.)

On tap @ Bekeerde Suster. Dark reddish brown, off-white head. Sweet malty aroma, caramelly taste, sweet, but not overly so, good, gentle bitterness in the end. Not very exciting yet technically well-made and enjoyable bock.

Draught@Beiaard, Spui, Amsterdam. Amber colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is spices, malts, hops and some mild yeast. Flavour is quite much malts, some yeast, hops and spices. Pleasant bock.

Had this beer at the Beiaard Beer Cafe in Hoorn (10/18/2011) A typical herfst bok, though lacking depth in the usual caramelly sweetness.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
(Draught@De Beiaard) Hazy dark reddish amber with a medium, foamy and lacy head. Caramely, slightly tart, slightly homebrew’ish aroma. Caramely-toffeeish, semi-sweet flavor with some dried fruit. Medium-bodied, very smooth and not too sugary mouthfeel. An easily drinkable, quite nice, but forgettable bock.
