330ml bottle. Patchy, off-white head, misty dark orange coloured body, hanging lacing. Moderate aromas of bread and toffee. Caramel fruity taste followed by a mid-sweet malty finish. Medium bodied. Quite alright. (Tromsø, 24.01.2026).

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.3%. Hazy reddish brown colour, moderate off-white head. Aroma of malts, caramel, brown bread, hints of dark fruits and berries. Smooth mouthfeel, some citric / fruity notes. Malty flavour with the same elements as the aroma. Moderate bitterness.

Nice looking deep amber to reddish, almost transparent. Medium sized, rather compact white head, nice retention and some lacing. Not much intensity in a clean, simple aroma: caramel malts with honey notes, a bit of biscuity softness, very light orange hints. Taste notes as per aroma, still mild but a bit more vivid. Medium sweetness, quite low bitterness; a clean, pleasantly soft sweet edge in the mouth, a nicely balanced finish/aftertaste, again very clean and dry enough (though a pleasant touch of honeyish sweetness lingers), perhaps with a hint of floral hops. Medium or slightly below medium bodied, slightly below average delicate, fine-bubbled carbonation; very drinkable for the style (indeed quite light in the abv spectrum for a bock) but still pleasantly soft with a hint of creaminess. A well made, pleasant, mild leaning bock.

[as Vetra BOCK] Bottiglia. Territorio olfattivo dominato dall'orzo tostato. L'intensità olfattiva è normale, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. La parte liquida offre una visione offuscata. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono anche la forma del perlage. Il colore è ambrato carico tendente rossiccio. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è di media potenza. La forza gustativa è normale e la durata è sufficiente. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. In bocca l'aroma è quello di caramello, miele, frutta secca, pane tostato ed erbaceo.

Sample (thanks omhper!). Amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is floral, fruity, some toffeeish an mild alcohol sweetness. Flavour is fruits, some sweet malts, mild toffee and mild spiciness to it. Sadly a bit watery, otherwise a decent Dunkel Bock.
