"Gessner Heller Doppel-Bock", Flasche (50 cl) von Getränke Hoffmann, Berlin. - Satt goldgelb, klar. - In der Nase leichte, kräuterig herbe Honigsüße, Pfirsichkonserve, zart schnapsige Note. - Antrunk breit malzsüß mit milder Honignote und feiner fruchtiger Säure, reifer Pfirsich, zarte Schärfe, fuselige Anklänge. Die dezente, an Kräutertee (Fenchel-Kamille) erinnernde Hopfung wird von der Malzigkeit erdrückt. Durchschnittlich rezent, vollmundig aber ohne die schwere Tiefe besserer Bockbiere. Im Abgang nur mild hopfenherb und zart süßsäuerlich mit leicht schnapsigen Zügen. - Etwas unrund aber durchaus trinkbar (sofern man Bockbiere mag). Und das Etikett erst!
