Pours a clear, lightly sparkling golden with a lightly-lacing white head. Aroma is earthy and somewhat musty with some sweet caramely maltiness. Body starts rich and sweet with good German lager yeastiness and a nice noble hoppy bitter balance. Many thanks to JPDIPSO for sharing this from his keg!

On-tap at Flying Pie in Boise, ID
Pale yellow color, very clear & filtered. The head is light and fizzy, dissipates quickly. The aroma is lightly sweet with a touch of apricot & raspberry. The malt profile is clean & fresh. The flavor is well balanced with a crisp hoppiness and mild pils malt. Finishes medium bodied for such a light color. Dry & sticky feeling on the palate aftwerwards, light acidicty. A good light bock, only on tap in the US maybe? tasty!

On tap at the Tree - Pale golden color with a thick white head, this has a rich, sweet malt aroma. It’s almost chewy malty, tasting like fresh dough with hints of fruitiness. Nice clean yet sweet finish. All around good bock.

Tap. Bockbierfest -Wauwatosa. Deep golden color with a dense cream colored head. Sweet cookie and floral aromas. Smooth thick feel. thick rich malt flavors with a sweeter floral hops balance. Seems to need a touch more dry bitterness to balance the malt but I am more of a malthead.
