Tap @ Bockbierfestival 2009. A clear golden colored beer, with a white head. The aroma of malts with yeast. A little grassy with fruits. The taste is a little bitter with sweets. The aftertaste is sweet with hints of bitter.

Poured a medium head, pale amber colour, clear. Slightly boozy smell. Balanced sweet malty taste with hints of grass. Nice on the palate. Overall good drinkable beer but more Märzen than Bock

(draught) pours a clear golden colour with a frothy white head. aroma of toasted marshmallow and sweet spices, with lots of grass and a hint of green apple. flavour is mostly the same, with some dominant notes of buttered popcorn and a light hint of white pepper in the finish. quite full-bodied with soft carbonation.

Mäßig würziger Antrunk, süß, malziger Unterton. Im Vordegrund steht hier wie auch im Mittelteil ein Getreideton, der sich mit der Würze verbindet, auch die Malzigkeit wird so etwas hervorgehoben, scheint aber darin ausfzugehen und ist so als eigenständiges Aroma kaum noch zu erkennen. Weiter getreidig, insgesamt milder werdend, hintergründig wie anfangs leicht würzig, im Abgang ist das Malz auch wieder deutlicher erkennbar, süß. Ein eher mildes Bockbier. Test vom 26.1.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 10,10,10,11,8,10 - 10,05

Bottle. Golden colour with a white head. Aroma is hop, fruit, grain. Flavour is hop, malt, fruit, grain. OK/Nice beer.

Bottle. Dark golden beer with a syrupy looking feel and a reasonable head. The aroma is gently malty, and the flavour is malty, gently roasted and bitter. Overall a very drinkable malty and mildly bitter beer.

Bottle, from trade with Papsoe. A clear one, golden in color and with a decent, off-white head. Fruity nose with a grainy touch. Pleasant hoppyness. Nice bitterness in the mouth, both initially and in the end. Full body, smooth and with a nice level of carbonation. Fruity finish with some malts and the already mentioned bitterness. Drinks easy, tastes nice and it’s definitely a beer I could have more of. 110218

Bottle.Pours golden with a white head.Aroma of herbal hops, malt and fruitiness.Flavor is sweet and malty with some fruitiness and bitterness.Medium body, average carbonation.Nice smooth and fruity beer.

Vom fass at the brewpub. Golden. The aroma has some herbal hops and a fair amount of bready malts. Herbal character - starts with a fair bit of sweetness and then fades to a mild hop bitterness with slight acidity . Solid, but not upper echelon Bamberg bock.
