Bottle from a great trade with Koelschtrinker (thanks!). A clear golden beer with a big, quite stable, white head. Sweetish malty aroma. Flavor is sweet and malty, with a touch of caramel. Finishes with herbal hops bitterness and some alcohol. Medium-bodied. A bit boring, but OK.

Bottle. Clear, golden body, with a nice, white head. There’s a quite evident alcohol aroma for starter, followed by a grainy sweetness and some fruity hops. Alcohol starts the show flavorwise as well. It is also malty, gainy, fruity and slightly hoppy and sweet. Full-bodied, with an oily feeling, and finishing with more alcohol, sweetness and fruity, bittering hops. Definately not a bad bock, but too focused on alcohol. It almost gave me a hard time to finish, but I sort of got used to it towards the bottom of the glass. (070829)

Bottle from St Albans beer festival. Golden coloured with a decent, rocky white head. Aroma had a sweet malty edge to it with some hay. Flavour also started sweet with a bitter finish. Alcohol was quite pronounced. Good.

Bottled. Pale golden colour, small white head. Aroma is mainly hoppy. Flavour is hops, malts, xylitol and soap. Strong alcohol coming through in the flavour too, more like a malt liquor or European Strong Lager in my opinion.

Head is just thin white film; body greenish yellow with faint carbonation. Dense caramelly earthy malt aroma with some hops. Taste is deep, hoppy malts with notes of straw, grain, and earth. Smooth, faintly oily mouthfeel. Dry, earthy aftertaste. Quite unusual, but once you acquire a taste for it, it’s nice. (Served way too cold at Cardinal in Stavanger in 0.33l bottle. Rerated at bock festival.)

Bottled (BB 09/2006). Clear golden color, decent white head. Aroma of grains and corn. This is like sophisticated European strong lager: good malt profile (chewy), grassy hops and warming alcoholic aftertaste. Nice, balanced, just need to rerate slighlty freshier version someday.
