With its firm, fine pored head, luminous gold and clear gleaming look, it cannot fail to awaken expectations of pure pleasure.
Strong malty nuances and floral hoppiness are imbued with accents of slight fruitiness. Despite its strength, Bergbock is pleasantly mouthcoating, with a powerful, but unobtrusive body. A highly discrete, finely bitter hoppiness transforms into a slight honey sweetness to conclude on a soft, harmonious aftertaste.
A harmonious light bock of character that cannot be put down after the first drink (16.5% original extract and 6.9% alcohol by volume).

500ml bottle. Pours clear gold, thin receding white head. Aroma is hay, sweet wort and floral elements. Taste is smooth, sweet malts that cater to my sweet tooth well. The grainy element makes itself known and the malty sweetness does get a bit much, but I still liked it.

Bottle. Clear gold with a lovely white head. Aroma of earthy and floral noble hops, grains, sweet malts, some booze and a tiny bit of soap. Taste is malts, grains and hops. Slightly alcoholic. Medium carbonation. Balanced but just a little bit too sweet for my taste. Still a good Bock though.

Clear golden color with big white head. Aroma is sweet-malty, like a good Helles, but more intense. Taste is sweet at first, then the grains take over, then sweetness again, clean finish with hints of esters and alcohol. Smooth carbonation, oily mouthfeel. A solid Bock. ABV is well hidden.

Aroma: Some fruits (maybe grapes?) and caramel. Taste: surprisingly sweet, reminds me a little of yeast dough Palate: Low carbonation, medium body with long finish. Appearance: clear golden with little white head. A decent beer, that you want to take another sip of, immediately after the previous one :)

Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 4C). Bottle 50 cl - Batch unknown. AROMA: moderate grainy-sweet aroma with a very faint Mailard products note. very faint floral hop aroma and clen lager profile. APPEARANCE: slight light gold and translucent. moderate, creamy, white head with average retention. TASTE: moderately strong grainy-sweet malt flavour with a very faint bread crust notes. no hop flavour. balanced bitterness with a semy-dry finish. PALATE: medium body with a smooth texture. moderate carbonation. slight alcohol warming. OVERALL: a good heller bock that lacks a bit more hop bitterness.
