DRAFT at Craft Baza 2. Well, it is much more bocky today... Hazy gold, creamy head. The nose is pleasantly grainy, with just a hint of sugars in it (although it is quite cold). The taste is a clean strong lager with a good deal of alcoholic bitterness, hop bitterness, but also tasty supporting malț sweetness - midway between bread, dry fruit cake, raisin biscuits.





DRAFT at Craft Baza 2. Almost clear pale gold, white head. The has subtle pale malt sugars, a little bit of grass and some bread or dough, mostly clean just a faintest hint of aspirin. Nice and clean, but neither malts nor hops hit you in the face. So is the taste too - subtle pale malts and fresh grass with minimal bitterness. It does not quite hit the bock target, but you can feel there's some body in it. Clean smooth easy drinking mouthfeel. Too bad it's a bit short of hops, especially for bock. Overall, a very fine well crafted lager.
