Golden-ish color. Very sweet aroma. The taste itself is kinda ’meh’ but the bartender fucked it up by holding the beer in the metal part of the yab. It had a very distinct metal flavor in it which, i assume, doesn’t belong there. Besides the metal flavor i tasted lot of fruits with a hoppy aftertaste

Geeloranje, aroma van bruin brood en citrusvruchten. Smaakt wat bitterfruitig , sinaasappel en metalig. Nasmaak wat bitter en sinaasappel. Weinig body.

Kaum Schaum hat dieser Lentebock. Ein interessantes Bier, blumig-süßliche kombination, mit sanftem Hopfen. Eher mildes Bier, teilweise fast etwas wässrig, aber lecker, frisch und spritzig-leicht, passend und nicht so stark alkoholisch. Nachgeschmack: Süßlich alkoholisch. Fazit: Gefällt mir, viel besser als die meisten deutschen Maiböcke aber auch nicht so herb, viel besser ab- und ausgeglichen. Test vom 25.5.2010, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,11,12,11,8,12 - 11,00

30 cl. bottle @ home. Light amber colour. Malty grassy aroma. Hoppy, roasted malts taste. bit sharp mouthfeel, not very round.

Golden yellow color with fast Dissapearing foam and low carbon. Bit sweet hop taste and not bitter. High alcohol compensates a bit. Longer aftertaste ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

As far as Lentebocks go, this one isn’t too bad. Sweet, bready maltiness, and a bit of tangy hops at the end. Watery, mild flavor overall.

Clear orange amber, white fading head. Sweetish flowery aroma. Taste as aroma. Body ok, carbonation a bit low.

Bottle, 6.5%. Caramelly and slightly spicy aroma. Does not smell like spicy hops, however. Hint of paper. Clear dark golden colour. Small stable white head. The flavour is a little yeasty and estery, good subtle sweetness. Sort of like wheat beer esters that I do not like too well, but OK.

30 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a huge white head. Aroma is grassy, light cornish and mild malty. Thick malty, light metallic and toasted malty flavoured. Sweet malty and light metallic finish.

RBESG 2009 Grand Tasting at Harlequin, Sheffield. Even though it is called a bock, it tastes mostly like a stronger lager. and a ratehr uninspired one I might add. thin bodied, malty some corn. Already forgotten.
