This characteristic seasonal beer has been brewed according to family tradition for more than 50 years. The special Munich malt determines the firm and robust taste.

Bottle: Ruby-amber coloured, small - quite stable - foamy layer; sweetish dark-malty nose with a tinge of molasses; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; lingering sweetish-bitter finish with a touch of bitter chocolate in the aftertaste, some warming alcohol detectable. A bit simple, but enjoyable...........

Courtesy of bierkoning. Ty Edo! Clear ruby color, creamy brownish head. Metallic, caramelly and grassy hoppy aroma. Grassy hoppy flavor, some roasted caramel, simple rawy flavor - very typical Budels beer - simple and metallic. Aftertaste has sugars and light alcohol.

(Drank this draught under the designation V.S.O.B. 2002 - whatever that stands for) Dark chestnut, opaque; thcik cream-coloured head. hoppy, drak malts, candi sugar and molasses in the nose. taste gives first an upcoming bitter-hop flavour. Then butterscotch intervenes. Damn. I somehow get a feeling/flavour of purée de marrons (chestnut flour cream). medium to heavy bodied. Nice, sweet-syrupy but agreable beer. Shame about the diacetyl.

Clear redbrown color, short creamy frothy head. Aroma is caramel malty, bit fruity. Bit roasted, fruity taste. Sweet sticky palate. Very decent bock. --- Beer merged from original tick of Herfstbock on 16 Oct 2014 at 10:06 - Score: 7. Original review text: Ruikt naar vanillevla/yoghurt. En dan komt het gebrande en de karamel pas. Interessant

Medium reddish-brown; chewy, toffeeish nose (yes, I do chew with my nose, thank you very much). Solvent-like phenols are getting in the way here...but rich malts, earthy one minute then turning quite sweet. I suppose a bock nut might be down with that, but I find it a little too sweet for its own good.
