Vokuhila is a strong pale lager. This helles bock is golden in color with a large, creamy, persistent white head; aromatically driven by robust toast and bread notes derived from continental European pale malts with moderate spice from noble German hops. Vokulhila will be appreciated by lager and mullet enthusiasts alike.

Draught at Ølbaren, Copenhagen
Nice golden to light amber color, with compact head. Light aroma of malt and caramel, some paper and bubblegum. Quite good malt flavor with a caramel declination and very light sweet liquorice root; it has a yeast character that is clean but less than a true German Bock (a bit overdone), providing more esters; correct bitterness, slightly above the German average (no complain); the final is long, quite chewy; this as well is unusual but appreciated.
Tasty but a bit unemotional.

On tap at Local Option. Pours a clear light amber orange with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma has a light grassiness with a nice bread note and a touch of sweetness. Flavor has a similar light grass and bread combination with a touch of bitterness in the finish.
