Slightly hazy gold with a frothy white head and a soft sweet cereal nose and just a hint of alcohol. Sweet and malty with sherry/brandy notes up front, just a touch hoppy, dry and bittersweet finish

Schöne, dunkelorangene Farbe, mild-süßlicher Geruch. Der Antrunk mild-süßlich, schön weich mit Honiganklänge. Im Hauptteil kommt eine angenehme Hopfennote hinzu, die gut in das etwas dunklere, leicht muffige Gesamtbild passt. Die Honigaromen werden ausgeprägter, aber das Bier wirkt dennoch nicht dickflüssig. Die Hefearomen sorgen für die angenehme mild-weiche Note. Der Nachgeschmack ist rund, leicht süßlich und angenehm mild. --> Leckerer, frischer Bock. Lecker!

Bottle: Hazy, deep golden to light amber coloured, small off-white foamy layer; "chalky"-malty nose, maybe with a touch of diacetyl; moderate bitter-sweet flavour with a light acidity, medium bodied; diacetyl in the sweet-fruity finish with a sourish afterburner. Surely infected, no pleasure....

(draught at the brewpub & bottle at home) Hazy, deep golden to light-amber colour with a mrdium-sized, slightly off-white foamy head. Sweet cara-malty and slightly bready aroma with a yeasty touch and herbal hops Sweet and slightly bitter flavour, medium to full bodied with a moderate carbonation. Solid (cara-)malty base with early arriving herbal hoppy accents, leading to a dry-out-effect towards the herbal and hop bitter finish with a pleasantly blended malty sweetness. The bottled version is heavily lacking carbonation and freshness (~2.6), otherwise a good and not too sweet pale Bock. 04. & 08.V.10

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a crispy and quickly disappearing head. Citric aroma. Carbonated. Fruity citric flavour, nice. Finish is mild sweet to dry.

Bottled. An unclear golden beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of oranges. The flavor is slightly acidic malty with notes of fruit - especially oranges and peaches. Not your standard Heller Bock.

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of joergen. Pours a cloudy golden with a tall, lively, white head with good retention. Lightly sour, citrusy nose. Medium body with lightly sweet and flowery notes. Sourish finish. Very atypical for a German - and for a Heller Bock, if that’s really what it is. 290607

Huge, very dense & fine yellowish head; orange beer, very well & densely carbonation. Bit of caramel, caramel malts, generally sweetish. CO² definitely in the nose; fresh greenery aroma. Sweet-sourish beer. Whatever its name, blind I’d guessed some kind of Weizen, if less clovey than usual. Quite citrussy however, fruity-yeasty. Retronasal some vegetable, or fruit prepared as vegetable, like green papaya. Traces of diacetyl? pasta cookingwater. Fizzy, tingling MF, overcarbonated IMO, making it seem lighter than it is. I might rate this very highly on a sunny terrace, a mug of draught in hand. In a severe judging condition, before the computer, it appears thin & timid. Thanks to DerDoppelbock

Milder, leicht getreidiger Antrunk. Etwas süßer werdend, im Mittelteil kommt eine leichte Würze auf, die erst im Nachgeschmack stark wird. Spritziges Bier, im Nachgeschmack etwas honigartig und leicht malzig. Ein milder Bock, der dennoch gefällt. Test vom 7.5.2007, Gebinde: Fass Noten: 11,11,11,12,-,11 - 11,15
