330 ml bottle from Verde 1080, bb 19.05.2016.
Amber, moderate hazy body, with a quite small, fluffy, a bit lacing, off-white head.
Aroma of honey, nuts, grains, grass, some sweet fruits, some sweet-spicy barrel notes.
Taste follows this, with subtle hoppy notes and a bit alcohol.
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes a bit light, medium dry, wooden, a but spicy, a but hoppy, a bit sweet, slightly alcoholic.
Nice one. A quite typical Heller Bock base, with well integrated, smooth barrel notes. Works really well and drinks pretty smooth. Not the best style example I’ve had, but quite above average in my opinion.
