0.75 l bottle from the brewery, best before June 2022. Minimally hazy, deep ruby with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, just slightly smoky, a bit fruity aroma of caramel, raisins, some smoked ham and a touch of nuts. Quite sweet, malty, gently smoky and slightly fruity taste of caramel, raisins, smoked ham and some nuts, followed by a short, slightly bitter, gently smoky finish. Medium to full body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tasty, well-balanced Bock in which the smoke is just an add-on, not the main flavour.

Tap “Sud des Monats Dezember”: Hazy, deep golden to copper coloured, medium-sized off-white head, dry leafy-herbal hoppy nose, some caramel-malt underneath (only detectable when the beer, served wsy too cold , gets warmer); moderate to solid dryish bitter flavour, milder sweetness detectable, hardly medium bodied, nearly a bit fizzy; lingering bitter-herbal finish, desparately balanced by a small amount of pale/caramelly malt in the aftertaste. Not too great, could be better balanced…
