Barley, maize grits, fine hops and water are the ingrediënts for the lager wort. This wort, Bockor-specific, gets semened with an typical brewery low yeast.

After the yeast period of approximately ten days, where the typical flavour package of our lager is determined, the young beer is cooled down to 0°C and gets it through a maturization of 3 weeks.

By a double filtration, Bockor gets its golden color and its clearness.

Bockor has a nice foam head when the beer is poured professionally in a clean, degreased glass. The smell has a nice touch of hops and a subtle bitterness.

Bottle in the bus on our way to Emelisse during the RBESG 2013 weekend. Poured a clear light straw colour with a thin white head. The flavour is weak bitter, a little hoppy with some malty notes on the palate. It’s a rather inoffensive refreshing beer and not so bad as far as pilseners go.

Bottle @ RBESG during the bustrip towards Emelisse. Thanks Martinus for sharing. Clear golden color, medium sized white head. Aroma and taste are pretty basic, standard maltyness, light bitterness, lightly grainy. Unexiting but no flaws.

250ml draught at the place called Quinten Matsijs in Antwerpen. Golden-straw coloured body, tiny head, solid lacing. Aroma of hay-like hops and pale malts. Mild grainy malts with grassy hops in flavour. Clean and dry in the mouth. Decent pilsner (enjoying ourselves at this elegant café, 28.04.2011).

93/20 was the rating when I found this page.... yes, that means that even if this beer scores in the 93rd percentile of ALL pilsners, it only ranks in the 20th percentile of all beers! Oh, those poor pilsners.... are they all really that bad? C’mon, who doesn’t like a good pils once in awhile? This pours with a painfully clear yellow-green body and just a small bed of head on top. The aroma is bread, perfumy hops, wet malts. The taste has a nice mix of sourdough bread and hops, very smooth, good mouthfeel. Like drinking a fresh loaf of European bread. It’s good, for sure; does it beat some of the heavier brews? Sadly, not.

7th March 2010. On tap somewhere in Brussels - nice way to finish a long days drinking and another good recommendation from Harrisoni - pale lager master! Cheers Ian! Pale gold beer. Light crisp palate. Very light lagerish malt - just a pleasant hint of hop bitterness. Clean and refreshing light lager!
