With the arrival of bock beer, the brewers mark the start of autumn. In the old days this was the first beer that was made after the summer with the fresh harvest of malt and hop. Hertog Jan was the first in The Netherlands who brewed Bockbier top-fermenting. This way, the flavor of the beer comes to its own better. Hertog Jan Bockbier has a pronounced full and creamy flavor, in which a slight whisp of caramel can be found.

Served at home from Perfect Draft. Creamy light brown head on a dark brown still body. Roasted, nutty & burnt aroma. Medium bodied, smooth & creamy with a sharp clean back. Sweet, berries, demerara & aniseed tastes with a tangy finish. Thats a good drinker

Hertog Jan Bockbier (2017), Fläschchen von Drink Drunk, Berlin-Kreuzberg. - Drink Drunk in Berlins wüstester Ecke hat jede Menge abgelaufener Flaschen im Regal, und auch bei dieser war das MHD 07/19 schon um 4 Monate überschritten, was aber bei 2 Jahren insgesamt nicht so stark ins Gewicht fallen sollte. - Tiefdunkles Kastanienbraun, klar. - In der Nase sattes dunkles Malz, zarte Maggi-artige Altersnoten, reife (oxidierte) Fruchtigkeit und billige, matt krautige Hopfenherbe. - Antrunk schwer aber flau dunkelmalzig mit Lakritz, Rohrzuckersüße, Pulverkaffee und ein wenig Torf. Konturlose, zart säuerliche Herbe. Milder rezent, vollmundig; nicht restlos kaschierter Alkohol. Im Abgang etwas dünn und zu wenig herb. - Etwas flauer aber noch trinkbarer Industrie-Bock.

Malty aroma with caramel and peach. Sweet flavor with some roasted malt and caramel. A hint of sourness. Tropical fruit. Not a classic, but a very nice bockbeer. Blindfold test 2005 version: hops and licorice in the aroma. Buisman. Very sweet, sugary flavor. Apple dumplings. (5 3 4 2 7 = 2.1)
