Commercial Description:
The original Stieglbock is a powerful finely hopped and traditional Bockbier – the Berman term for strong beer – indicating a bottom-fermenting brew from barley malt. Brewed in August, the fermentation process lasts three months which produces a golden color beer with taste and strengths varying from year to year. This beer is perfect for beer lovers who prefer bold types of beer. 16.5 Plato

Well the picture doesn't match but the bottle say's its a stiegl bock.Nice golden color,Big deep head foamy and slightly off white but large as hell.Sweet malt aroma with nice hop presence.Malty sweet,mildly hopped,slight hints of alcohol but it stay's well hidden.leaves a malty sweet after taste with a late mild hop bite that makes this brew quite pleasant to drink and seems to be well balanced in flavor.You get a little bit of everything but not all at once.

Oh yeah!!!! mmm, excellent bock beer. Poured with a big, foamy, frothy off white head and a little lace. Lovely medium amber color, but lighter than most bocks I see. Aroma is very beery, malty, and hoppy. Right away in tasting I get malt sweetness that’s immediately tempered with plenty of hops for great balance. The mouthfeel goes with it in great carbonation and body. Definite alcohol warming. Could be a session beer but for the strength. Real easy to have at least another though.

Bottled, 2005 vintage. Poured medium-brighter golden with a dusting and a ring of white head. The aroma picked up chewy bready malts and a pinch of honey with grassy and herbal accents.. semi-sweet overall with bright highlights, showing only slight age. The flavor had dry caramel supporting honey and lesser bready malts at the core with alcohol-spiked herbal bitterness around.. finished spicy and warm. Medium-bodied and very dry on the palate.. a bit grainy.. OK flow across the palate. This had nothing particularly excellent in it, but it was easy to drink.

Bottle 504 ml - vintage 2005 (unfiltered)
Appearance: Thick ,hazed amber brew.
Nose: Malty , fruity rich nose . Sweetness popping trough , grainy ending.
Flavor/Palate : Medium full bodied. Soft textured thanks for being unfiltered. Caramel malty brew that well covered dry alcohol. Not overly complex but with traditional feel. Tasty with late alcohol burn.
