»The Original« Naturally cloudy and full-bodied – Genuine strong beer enjoyment. When Duke Erich handed Martin Luther a mug of Einbecker Beer at the Worms Reichstag in the year 1521 Martin Luther called out “the best drink known to man is called Ainpöckisch Beer.” His love to Katharina von Bora and to Ainpöckisch Beer was also shown at his wedding in Wittenberg when the council of the town of Wittenberg presented him a barrel of Einbecker as a gift. Already after his disputation in Leipzig in the year 1519 the council of the town of Wittenberg did welcome him by a jar of Einbecker Beer.

Code on the label is not decipherable by me.
It pours a clearish medium gold with a small and short lasting head of foam. Lacing is minimal.
Smell is of hops, citrus, actually reminds me of noble hops. Toasted malt with the hops going a grassy way.
Taste is caramel malt and toasted malt, has some notes of grain, hoppy in an unusual way; can't say noble hoppy, oh, yes I can. Also has a bit of a light struck taste to it. The bottle is green. There's a balance here that I truly admire.
Lovely mouthfeel, lovely beer. More please

Süffiger, hellmalzig herber Beginn mit minimalem Hopfen. Erkennbar alkoholisch, steigend bitter, moderat würzig. Der trockene Alkohol stört, dadurch ruppig und wenig süffig. Könnte ausbalancierter sein. 10/9/6/7/9/7

Foggy gold, good white head. Aroma: lots of cracker malts, honey, bread, hay. Medium body. Taste: moderately sweet, malty. Grains, crackers, honey, bread, hay. A touch of hop in the ending. Light bitterness. I was expecting more from the brewery that is that much associated with bock.

Bottle. Blonde, hazy. Malty buttery floral aroma. Malty sweet, doughy, floral flavor. Low on carbon. Cake and butter in the finish. Pleasant enough, but not a prize winner.

Draft at Craft Brewed. Pours a clearish gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Caramel and toffee aromas with some honey bread notes as it warms. Sweet, but not overly so. Very malt forward with some faint grassy hops to cut the sweet malt. More toffee and light wood notes. Easy drinking and smooth. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Ainpöckisch Bier 1378 on 21 Dec 2018 at 22:26 - Score: 7. Original review text: Lovely toasted malt and toffee aromas. Smooth and light with and rich toffee note on the palate. Lingering honey, toffeee notes. Nice bock
