0.75 l bottle from 'Getränke Kosmol', as 'Borbecker Heller Bock', best before November 2024. Slightly hazy, golden with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, slightly malty, gently fruity-floral and a little grassy aroma of grains, some honey and light lemon peel. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, slightly fruity-floral and a bit grassy taste of grains, lemon peel, some honey and a touch of fresh grass, followed by a short, moderately bitter finish. Medium to full body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, average to lively carbonation. Pleasant, refreshing and well-balanced Bock, rather hoppy for the style. Nice surprise, surely better than expected.

Fles in Duitsland gekocht thuis geprobeerd. Het is een helder licht goudgeel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van mout, citrus en hop. De smaak is vol moutig, fris citrusachtig en licht hoppig.
