0.5 l bottle. Orange copper color. The aromas of honey, tart fruitiness, warming alcohol and toffee. Sweet toffeish and warming flavor with raisins and tart fruitiness. Full body. Somewhat boozy.

Frischer, etwas süßer Antrunk, unscheinbar. Kurze Zeitspäter nimmt das Bier die Züge eines typischen Bockbiers an, es wird kräftiger und leicht alkoholisch-süß, etwas getreidig, angenehm. Das Bier bleibt auch im Abgang so, mittelwürzig, hell. Der Alkohol prickelt etwas in der Nase, ist aber noch in angenehmem Rahmen angelegt. Einfacher aber leckerer Bock. Test vom 26.4.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 10,11,12,11,12,11 - 11,10

Bottle: Deep golden coloured, small and firm off-white foam; bisquity-caramelly nose, accompanied by very delicate herbal hops and a well hidden touch of alcohol; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; slightly lingering bitter-bisquity finish. Quite bland for a Bock.....

(bottle) Slightly hazy, deep golden to amber colour with a medium-sized, slightly tanned foamy head. Sweet and slightly yeasty and subtle fruity cara-malty aroma with lighter bready and shy hoppy notes. Sweet flavour with a tinge of bitterness, medium to full bodied with a creamy carbonation. Slightly bready cara-malty taste with very subtle (citrus-)fruity notes; the initial sweetness is drying out a bit towards the malt-accented, slightly hop bitter finish with notes of alcohol shining through. Nevertheless a calm and nice Bock, but nothing more. 11.I.10
