La Trappe Bockbier

Brewed by De Koningshoeven (Bavaria - Netherlands)
Style: Dunkler Bock
Tilburg, Netherlands

Pours a dark amber color with a large foamy khaki head. Nose of dark fruits specifically plum and raisan. Brown sugar, clove, caramel and some spice. Initial taste of roasted malt deep in the back, sweet caramel, toffee, and plum. Mid palate continues with lightly roast creamy and hop balance. Finish is dry and short. Mouthfeel is active carbonation and light bodied. Head retention and spot lacing is excellent.

Deep red colour with a huge head. The aroma is of caramel and prunes. Flavor is similar - it remind me more of a dubbel.

Red brown colour, medium foamy head. Aroma is of caramel malts, and spices. Flavour is of caramel and fruits and some alcohol tones, Very nice bock.

Bottle 30cl. Pours a murky copper/brown colour with a normal size head and little carbonation. Smell is very rich, nuts there and also some spices and raisins, vaguely some fruits. Taste is also of nuts and spices, also has the fruit there a bit more present. Goes down very nice and warm, good bock beer.

hmmm, aroma of french crapes with strawberry jam with some alcohol through it. Head is big and uneven on a ruby red beer. The taste is good too, but the hoppyness is a little bit too much.

Cloudy copper color, medium brown head. Aroma of deep roasted malts, some toffee and caramel. Bitter aste of toffee, roasted malt, slightly sweet. Bitter malty finish, bit sticky palate.
