Served in a pilsner glass, super clear pale gold with a 1cm head of white foam. Mild grassy aroma. The taste is earthy, grassy malts with a touch of spice - it’s ok.

Draft - Toasted malts, light molasses and mild chocolate. Jet brown with a thin head. Rich dark malts toasted grains and the chocolate is lost in the flavour. Very average bock.

Draft - Plum, cherry, mild smoke and some oak notes. Cloudy amber with a thin head. Bacony smoke that is sweet vs. the campfire smoke. Almost light peat. The flavours are almost vinous. I was fount ante enough to be drinking withe the brewer and he explained that their smoked beers use local wood, which would explain the significant differences between German and American smoked beers.

For some reason this is now being sold as W (double) Chocolate Bock. Bottle at the GJBF Osaka. A pleasant chocolatey aroma with a rich malty base underlying it and a golden brown color. The mouthfeel is nice but the flavor is slightly grainy which I don’t care for, grainy start then chocolate finish. Tasty but somewhat disappointing.

7.5% On tap at the GJBF Osaka. A nice amber pour with a light beige head. The aroma is definitely smokey with maybe a hint of peat but quite appetizing. The flavor is bacon, smoke, malts, some sweetness. Really easy drinking stuff, you don’t feel the 7.5%. Possibly not as good as Fujizakura’s but they did a good job. Solid stuff.

Draught at the Great Japan Beer Festival, Osaka, 2011. Tangy, citrus nose with just a little banana, some cloves. Quite pale yellow color. Rather full wheat flavor, quite bitter, with citrus and a little banana. Decent but not rally impressive.
