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 from our B&B landlady in Kortrijk. Its a golden lager, thin white head. It’s an ok pils with some very tasty hop on the finish. Middle malts are a bit poorish, but I like the bite on the finish, really quite aggressive. Straight forward, but tasty and refreshing enough. 3/5 Re-rate, a whole crate from Dranken Pauwels. Love it. Refreshing. My fridge beer for a beer to drink when I come home from work. Simple, good to look at, some hop, lemon and soap on aroma. Some toasted pale malt in mouth, some noble hop bitterness on the finish. Good.

Draft at Birerria Paradiso in DC. Bright orange with a creamy head. Straightforward stuff, quite a creamy drinkable body. Filtered, not so far off from a Stella or Jupiler. Nice mellow yeast characteristics though. Borderline macro, OK.

Clear golden beer; yellowish, fine & dense head, leaving some lace. Vanilla aroma through a gassy nose, further pale malts, vaguely spicey. Quite bitterish, hops at first - but not very noble ones, turning flat & metallic. Ends dull sweet, even if dryish. Slightly burning MF, bit slimy sensation. Very average pilsner.

(Bottle 25 cl) Normal pilsener golden colour, decent gead, Nice balance between hops and malt sweetness. Not that different from a Danish standard pils. This entry should be titled "Bockor Pils". 070205
