UPDATED: OCT 14, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) In 2004 this was a brand new beer from the brewery in Flensburg. The strongest beer I’ve had from this brewery. Perhaps a little surprising this is a light bock. A dark, malty, rich doppelbock might be a more suitable choice for the season. Light amber color with a tall, full head. Very rich and alcoholic, very sweet. Obviously a lot of malt has been used here, and there might be a slight, underlying alcoholic tone. But it’s definitely a beer which is a quality product. Controlled bitterness. 111104

Bottled. Golden colour, big creamy head. Caramellish malty aroma with a small sting of alcohol. Caramellish malts and a sting of alcohol in finish. Aftertaste is long, containing caramel, alcohol and candyish sweetness. Very wellbalanced. A bit grassy hints in flavour and aftertaste too.

Bottled. Clear golden, minimal head. Buttery with some boiled vegtables. Sweet and medium bodied with rounded mouthfeel. Buttery malt hides tha alcohol, but does not provide much pleasure. Somewhat mellow in the mouth, low bitterness.

Bottled. Clear golden coloured with a small white head. Aroma of malts and spices. Sweet flæavour of malts and corn. Tastes more like a european strong lager than a bock. Tastes like polish strong lagers !

33cl bottle @ Flensburg. Pours clear golden with a small creamy lasting white head. Nose is sweet of alcohol, fruit & bubblegum.Taste is bready and malty with a clear note of alcohol. A bit watery palate. Not impressive.

Golden color. Sweet, boring aroma, with some alcohol. The alcohol is dominant in the taste as well, oily, with poor characteristics, high biitterness and cloying.
