Bij Heel Holland Bakt hoort iets zoets. Dat lukt met deze wel. Zoet, kruidig.. Wat je verwacht bij de naam Winter Bock.

30 cl. bottle. Winter 2011-2012. Pours a dark amber with a thin off-white head. Roasted malts dominate along with some caramel. Was expecting some more body judging the rich colour and alcohol percentage. Decent enough winterbrew
