Review based on the BJCP2021 guidelines (style 9A). Can 50 cl - Batch undeclared (BB: 30.06.2027) AROMA: medium-low maltiness with a slight toastiness. slight metallic and cereal husk background note. gentle alcoholic presence. APPEARANCE: amber body and very slightly hazy with fine particles in suspension. medium-low beige head with medium-low retention. TASTE: initial medium-high malt flavor with fair richness (toastiness, slight sweet), followed by medium-high bitterness. unbalanced towards bitterness. finishes dry and excessively bitter. MOUTHFEEL: medium to medium-high body with medium-low carbonation. slight astringency. OVERALL: a bock (or doppel) with ok malt presence, although not much complex. the excessive bitterness ruins the tasting rendering it unbalanced.
