Golden Bock
Glissade is a remarkably mellow take on the traditional spring bock. With restrained sweetness, we emphasize subtle malt flavor balanced against delicate aromas of spicy and floral European hops. This complex balance helps Glissade slide across the palate, bracing us against the last cold nights of winter, while its bright golden color turns our thoughts toward spring.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. 2011 version. Pours a clear light gold with 2 finger of white head. Slight aroma of citrus hops and some honey. Taste is medium sweet and lightly bitter. Strong honey taste with some light hops. Medium bodied with a light yet creamy texture. Lively carbonation and a long honey finish. Overall, not bad. I would drink a 6er of this stuff whilst mowing the lawn.

Golden yellow beer with a almost medium and blond head. Aroma is malty and sweet, little of honey and some grassy hoppyness. Taste is also strongly malty as aroma, slightly sweet and enough of drying, spicy hoppyness. Medium bodied, nice to drink. Maltyness, maltyness and not much anything more; very conservative approach into the style from Sierra Nevada.

Svårt att jämföra med andra öl. Den är ingen typisk bock, det är en hel del humle men inte åt APA eller IPA hållet. Snällare beska, en liten sötma och ganska lätt kropp. Men en trevlig bekantskap.

Bottle: Golden to deep golden, small firm white head, herbal-hoppy nose with delicate bisquity undertones; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied, very soft; lingering herbal-hoppy and slight bisquity finish. A well drinkable, hoppy Bock in the franconian tradition......

Bottle from ’Jacks’, Westholme Stores, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon 19th July 2011 consumed 21st July 2011 at home Pours mid gold with just a scattering of white bubble, but looks very good. Honey and a waft of meadow on the nose along with some light maltiness. Malty in the mouth and quite thick and full flavoured also. Tasting like a big heavy but decent lager, the bitterness and hops very reminiscent of the style. Likeable but not wonderful. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.3
