Golden with almost no head. A bitter sweet arome with notes of dried fruits. Dry sweet taste with somebitternes in the end. Thanx to Jørgen and Jacob.

An orange beer with no head - probably due to being the one that was smuggled out from Roskilde Festivalen. The aroma contains alcohol and the metal note, that sometimes accompany alcohol, but also some notes of apricot. The flavor contains strong notes of alcohol, which gives You the warmth, but also gives the beer a metal note, which intertwines with notes of apricot. The end is dry. To me this is a down the middle of the road Bock.

Draught at the Roskilde Festival. Orange coloured. Fruity and hoppy aroma. Sweet and oily fruit flavour. Loads of peaches and apricots. Some bitterness in the finish. It tastes more like an American pale ale than a Bock.

Draught at Roskilde Festival 2005. Hazy orange colour with a white head. Malty and sweet fruity aroma with a nice hoppyness and hints of alcohol. malty and fruity flavor with some fresh hops and a dry finish.

(Rating from memory.) Tasted at the Roskilde Festival in a plastic cup, so... Golden color with hardly any head. Looked a lot like a Tuborg Classic. Good sweet and hoppy aroma, which carried over in the taste. Very easily drinkable beer with nice hints of taste and aroma hops without much bitterness. Good for a sunny festival.

Draught at the Roskilde Festival while Turbonegro were playing. If I had to guess, I would say that this was a pale ale of some sort because of the high bitterness. However it is maybe called a "bock" because it rhymes on rock, maybe. As of the beer, it is quite good, especially after having consumed several cases of King beers. Quite sweet aroma, bitter finish. Nice one.

UPDATED: JUN 24, 2006 Didn´t need smugglers to get this one. Sweet orange beer with no head and almost no CO2. Nice fruity flavor mostly of abricot. Sweet finish.

Clear amber coloured with a small fast disappering head. Aroma of dried fruits, anise, malts and caramel. Flavour of dried fruits and malts. Thanks to Jacob for smuggling this beer out of the Roskilde Festival.

Jacob Lövenlund is the only one smugling beer out from Roskiled festival, when thousend of others are trying to smugle beer into the festival. So thanx to Jacob and Jørgen. Golden colour. Light sweet malty hay aroma and a very sweet straw taste. Medium body and a sweet light alcoholic finish. Very German.
