Traditional bottom-fermented bock, which can induce nostalgic feelings, brewed the Oedipus way. This means a bock with hop aromas present, but not predominant due to the traditional hop varieties. This keeps the chocolate and toast notes from the malt intact. The aftertaste is slightly dry and quite bitter.

On tap at Oedipus Craft Space Taproom, Amsterdam, Saturday 10th January 2026, after a treacherous walk from the Buiksloterweg boat mooring and then Lowlander. Pours hazy mid brown with a filmy off white head. Okay bock but a bit thin, light caramel, a bit of dark fruit Score 6.6

Draft at De Paas, Den Haag. Poured a mostly clear medium brown colour with a big, lasting, frothy off-white head. The aroma is toffee caramel, light herbal. The flavour is moderate to light sweet, with a smooth, somewhat rich, roasty, earthy, aromatic, light caramel palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Thanks fonefan! Copper colour with a small white head. Aroma is toffee, some toasted tones with mild wood as well as some herbal elements. Flavour is quite similar to the aroma, but also has a hint of burnt wet wooden tones.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Fruity and malty aroma with caramel, dried dark fruits, figs, and an unexpected hoppiness. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a welcome moderate bitterness. Body is medium. Not your typical Bock because of the hoppiness.
