Deep golden colour. Nice sparkle. Low head. The aroma is spicy (fenugreek seed, hing) with lots of caramel and hay-like accents. Thick caramel taste with strong cumin character and late alcoholic kick. Note: I had not eaten curry in four days when I tasted this so those spice pickups are legit. Not sure what the point of calling it Bock in America is...its clearly going to disappoint any bock fan, but will be right up the alley of a mocne fan.

Bottle. Crystal clear golden color with white head. Malty caramel like aroma with toffee and a brief hint of hops. Flavor is sweet sweet malts balanced by some solid hop bitterness that push this beer out of style a bit but more toward my liking. The sweet malts do dominate. Nice tasting beer.

Bottled. Golden colour. Butterscotchy saaz hop aroma. Rather sweet with clean, rounded mouthfeel. Oily hops and medium bitterness in the finish.
