Unser Gessner Dunkler Bock präsentiert sich edel in einem klaren Kastanienbraun mit glänzenden, rubinroten Reflexen und einer ockerfarbenen Krone aus feinporigem Schaum. Aromen, die an die bekannte Verschmelzung von kräftiger Vollmilchschokolade mit Rum-Traube-Nuss erinnern, sind sogleich in der Nase wahrnehmbar. Der weiche, aber aromatische Haupttrunk breitet sanft seine vornehmen, aber klar wärmenden Noten von Zartbitterschokolade auf der Zunge aus. Dies passiert begleitet von dem nicht aufdringlich, aber präsenten Malzkörper und der nur eine kleine Nebenrolle besetzenden Hopfenbittere. Im Nachtrunk entlässt dieser dunkle Bock den Genießer glückselig und mit wundervollen Kakaoaromen auf der Zunge.

Bottled. Clear dark amber, small head. From nose to finish licorice molasses and bread dominates. It’s sweet and dense, fruity and salty with solid body and fairly soft mouthfeel. Finishes with medium bitterness.

Bottle. A clear, copper beer with a beige head. Sweetish, slightly fruity nose with cooked vegetables playing a too big part. Caramel-sweet and grainy, rather fruity flavor with the vegetables being too evident here too. Quite thin body for a bock. Cooked vegetables, sweet maltyness and some hops in the finish, but low on bitterness. Ok for a bock though. A drinkable, but not very well-crafted bock. (080731)

Bottle at Chris_o Pre GBBF Shindig 08. Clear attractive amber colour. Lasting something, not sure what my notes say. Toasty aroma. It’s a little thin in mouth. It’s fine, if a little dull maybe.

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Aroma hoppy. Starts very mild. Should be a little bit stronger and maltier. Not more than an average bock!
