"Fresh 650ml bomber ( thanks Jason)
Pour reveals a dark copper-cola lager 2 finger frothy cap with fair retention and fair lacing...lightly carbonated. Nose is very subtle with just light hints of toast, caramel, hay.
Firm malt spine, Medium bodied, soft rounded mouthfeel, mild toasty-sweet character.
Toasty-rich caramel malt mixture up front then midway nobel hops and lager yeast byproduct flavors develop mixing with the malts to give impressions of caramel-walnut bundt cake with light herbal tones, some figs and hebs...finish is wet with light herbal bittering keeping the caramel sweetness from becoming cloying...pleasant bready after taste....some light warming from the alcohol.
Not an overly robust bock but a very flavorful satisfying and drinkable traditional bock. I can highly recommend this to dark lager lovers.
