Golden, fine carbonation, whice lacing cream. Solid, light toasted malt base, sparkly mouthfeel, citric and flowery hop balance, good bitter finish which effectively cuts through the sweet start. Really well crafted moreish Maibock.

Bottle shared with McTapps. Easy going Bock with a decent malt aroma and less alc in the taste than you would expect. Nice one to end the evening.

I always wonder why the German bottle/label designs are always so uninspiring, ugly, boring and old-school when the beer itself isn’t THAT bad....well here is another example. Deep golden colour with low head and smooth body. Nose of malt. Taste of rich, intense light malt, ripe grains, grass, hay, strong alcohol and roses. Easy to drink but just taht touch too much Bock; too dusty and boring in the finish. But overall a okay-kind of beer.

A nice malt forward beer with toasted carmel undertones and which does not overpower you with the higher alcohol. Actually flavor balances the strength pretty well.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Kristall-König (1901) - Oldenburg, GERMANY - JUL 29, 2011
Geruch malzig-süß, leider auch etwas pappig. Malzig-süßer Antrunk. Im Mittel hält sich das Malz wird aber würziger. Bitterwürzig abfließend. Akzeptables Bockbier. Danke an Grima!Test vom 9.5.2010, Gebinde: Glasflasche
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Koelschtrinker (8619) - Köln (Cologne), GERMANY - MAY 18, 2011
Süß-herber Antrunk, die beiden Noten wechseln sich ab. Auf lange Sicht gewinnt aber die Herbe, auch wenn sie einen deutlich süß-alkoholischen Touch aufweist. Zum Ende wird die Herbe stärker, eine aufkommende Hopfigkei beinhaltet die gesamte Würzigkeit, bringt den Bockbier-Charackter aber nicht wirklich gut rüber. Getreidig, der Alkohol macht auch im hinteren Teil in unangenehmer Weise auf sich aufmerksam. Trinkbarer Bock, der sich wohl noch in der Erprobungsphase befindet. Danke an Erzengel! 10/7/8/8/6/8

Bottle from Grima, thanks! Blonde. Cookie dough aroma. Sweet and slightly alcoholic grassy flavor. Malty and bready. Sticky mouthfeel. Decent.
