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

Dickinsonbeer (5077) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - NOV 6, 2004
Bought a six pack of this stuff one night in salzburg. I was hurting in the morning. Ok appearance- amber color with a slight beige head. Aroma is malt/cereal and grainy as was the taste. Mouthfeel was somewhat smooth but ended up harsh towards the end where th alc. was apparent. Slightly overcarbonated.

JPDIPSO (4957) - Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA - APR 28, 2003
Pours a deep rich golden color with a small light yellow/tan head. Heavily sweet aromas of molassas, with a hint of malt and touch of floral hops. Smooth on the tongue, with a light initial sweetness, followed by hint of hops. In the finish it hit you with just tons of malt and an undercoating of warming alcohol. A fine helles bock, perfect for a fall afternoon.

BBB63 (4939) - La Porte, Indiana, USA - JUN 5, 2004
Bottle: Golden hue with fizzy mostly fading head and good lace. The arom has notes of caramel and toasty malts, ripen pear, floral hops, and earthy yeast esters. The taste starts malty with major caramel overtones. A crisp bitterness and yeast tones on finish. The feel is lively and crisp with a earthy finish. Overall, I would say this is very true to style and very quaffable.

The body is dark gold and clear. The aroma is bready with walnuts and some earthy moss. There is also a little bit of dry apple cider. The taste is slightly spicy mushrooms. There is also some cherry pit character. This is relativly dry.

Rune (4667) - Tromsø, NORWAY - DEC 15, 2007
330ml green bottle from Meinl am Graben, Wien. Poured a fast fading white head. Clear golden body colour. Sweet fruity nose. Flavoured with pears, light hops and a touch of sweet malts. Hidden alcohol. Roundd mouthfeel and rather well bodied (03.12.2007).

Braudog (4473) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - OCT 7, 2006
Poured a nice orange-tinted amber with a solid bright white foam head. Big cookie-dough/malty aroma. The flavor on the other hand is distinctly of baked apples. Nice flavorful beer.

tiggmtl (4467) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - NOV 4, 2005
Bready aroma with a floral, fresh fruit salad character that is pleasantly inviting. Clear, deep, golden body is topped by a low, large bubbled white head that recedes to a lasting cover. Very fruity flavour has underlying bready malt character and fair finishing bitterness. Dry medium body, with crisp, fine bubbled, pointy carbonation that engages the tongue. Lager glass. Just above fridge temperature. Bottle (State Line Liquors, MD, Oct-05).
