Mehrmals mit dem European Beer Star ausgezeichnet, der helle Bock. Mit seinem P 16 Stammwürze ist er kräftig, aber nicht zu mächtig. Wohl bekomm’s.

A beautiful clear deep golden, with just an orangeish hint. Average sized white head, good enough retention and decent lacing. Quite good intensity in the aroma, with a deeply sweet malty base (caramel, honey) and a lighter hay/grainy note; a bit of delicate grassy/herbal feel on the back, some dry floral hops notes. Feels well integrated. Taste notes follow the aroma: medium sweetness, low to medium bitterness. Leans slightly towards sweetness, but there's good overall balance in both taste and in a semi-dry aftertaste. Nice taste intensity and definition, maybe not 100% clean in finish/aftertaste. Medium body, slightly below average carbonation, feels quite fullfilling for the style while still retaining good drinkability. A very satisfying heller bock.

Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass deep golden, small head. Starts fine malty, spicy. Light herbal touch. Fine grasy notes as well, shy bitter background. Finish again spicy-malty. Nice one!

Flaska från Bierothek. Gyllengul vätska med medelhögt skum. Stor kropp, maltig sötma, värmande alkohol med rejäl punch utan att bli spritig. Lätt kryddig beska. Mycket gott

Klare goldene Farbe; gemischtporige mäßig stabile Schaumkrone. In der Nase malzig, leicht würzig und viel Honigaromen, etwas blumiger Hopfen. Im Geschmack honigartig - aber nicht zu süß, deutlicher Hopfen, spürbare Bittere, malziger Nachtrunk, durchaus süffig.
