75cl bottle from Mitra. My first aged bock. This one was not a disappointment. Much more taste than a normal bock. Sweet and bitter notes. Liked it a lot! Want to try some more aged bocks in the future.

Bottle: Pours a clear darker ruby colored beer with a big vast beige/creamy head that changes into a smaller fluffy head. Smell malts, caramel, prunes, nuts, autmn herbs and light hint of toffee. Taste is quite the same with hints of malts, caramel, bitter, metal, autmunal herbs, leaves, toasted malts and barleys. Toasty malty barley bitter aftertaste. Low carbo, soft light spicy mouthfeel, medium to fuller body and a light creamy texture. Good beer. Tasty!

Aroma malts caramel some wood. Poors amber with thin white head. Taste sweet hint of hop. 75cl bottle.

After the beer was served in the glass there was found a lasting quantity not wall adhesive light brown foam collar which was fine and evenly of structure. The beer also contained much carbonic acid in the glass. The beer has a clear dark ruby color and a sweet taste. The after tast of the beer is hoppy bitter with a caramel touch. This beer smells light caramelly.

Bottle (750ml):Reddish-amber coloured, big - quite stable - fluffy off-white head; moderate to solid nutty-caramelly nose with a tinge of marmalade and wine; moderate to solid sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; sweet and light bitter finish with a touch of sherry. Good.......

A clear red/brown colored beer, with a thick foamy beige head. The aroma of sweet fruits with some notes of wood. There is a little caramel. The taste of sweet fruits with a nice bitterness. Flavors of wood in the back, The aftertaste is bittersweet.

UPDATED: APR 10, 2012 Ruby red. Sticky, soy sauce or sugar syrup. Very well balanced. One of the better gulpeners.

Nice dark copper, but a beige, somewhat ugly head. Dough, simple Belgian malty dubbel style base, allspice, caramel, simple cookies. Light sweet palate but unfortunately a bit sticky aftertaste. Decent brew. Is a good beer to get into more expressive or strange craft beers. Fairly flavourful overall. (75cl bottle)
