Bottle. It pours a clear, golden body and a dense, off-white head. Lots of bubble gum on the nose, as well as lemonade, but not much else. The flavor reminds me of a German radler initially, but the same bubble gum found in the aroma is also present. Some bitterness in the end. Medium body.pleasant carbonation. Well, I certainly won’t miss this one, and it’s probably the worst pale bock I’ve had. 121110

It’s Christmas Eve 2011 (21.00) and I thought I’d have something different: big mistake. Everything prepared for the big day, time for a well earned drink, choose the wrong one. The brown 500ml embossed bottle had a best before date of 02 Mar 2012 and was poured (3 times) into a Veltins Pilsner stemmed tulip. The bottle was impressive and promised so much, ’well packaged’ I suppose. The beer looked fine, deep golden colour with a good crown as a head on each pour, sadly they all became a wispy covering and collar far to quickly. The smell is alcohol and sugared cereals (wheat, corn, etc) with a yeasty undertone. The taste is a nasty mix of sweetness and alcohol, a headache in a bottle. I am getting that headache even as I write this review. I love Bock’s but this does nothing for me at all. It is an alcohol laden lager with no redeeeming features at all. It is the sort of beer that drunks pour down their throats on park benches.

Bottle. Clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of malt (rather grainy), a bit of hops, light metallic notes and a bit of alcohol. Sweet flavor with malt, some graininess, honey hints and a drier finish with light bitter hoppy notes. Medium-bodied. Drinkable.
