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.

Blonde appearance, white head. I found the aftertaste very dry, but not so metallic as to be off-putting. Definitely some caramel and grain in the nose, but the smell is best described as follows: the backwash at the bottom of a bottle that’s been sitting out in the sun for a few days. The aroma is tricky for me: it’s enjoyable at the same time as it’s stale (if that makes sense). I enjoyed the beer on the palate. I taste caramel and something fruity. Overall it’s not bad at all, quite enjoyable actually. I’d try anything from 1492 twice. (Got it from Whole Foods. Bottle)

Weird. The sweet caramely maltines combines with the particular hops they use (and it is decently hoppy) to taste like mint. Definitely not my thing.
