As winter begins its slide toward the sunny days of spring, we bring you Glissade Golden Bock to help you enjoy the ride. Glissade is a remarkably mellow take on the traditional spring bock. With restrained sweetness, we emphasize subtle malt flavor, balanced against delicate aromas of spicy and floral European hops. This complex balance helps Glissade slide across the palate—bracing us against the last cold nights of winter, while its bright golden color turns our thoughts toward spring.

[1] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (6/2/2010 1:51:30 PM)
"Pours out in a clear golden colour with a dense and firm sticky white foam. Grass hops mild citru and sweetish undertones of melon. Medium-bodied with hoppy notes of grass, straw, mild citric fruit and mild white pepper. A bit thin body for a bock. Medium-bitter finish of wet grassy hops. "

[2] Review by funk from grand forks, ND, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/26/2010 8:31:24 PM)
"Not that I didn't expect it coming from Sierra Nevada, but this is one fine beer. What it lacks in complexity is more than made up for in refreshing, simple goodness. Soft, full bodied with a nice even finish--not too bitter and not too sweet."

[3] Review by Upstate Dave from Hamilton, NY, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/13/2010 9:26:40 PM)
"Very nice! Picked this up at Kraigs Kegs in Oneida. Poured an orangish amber with solid white head. Good balance of aroma and flavors that complimented rather that competed with each other. I found this very smooth and drinkable."

[4] Review by bluesandbarbq from Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (4/8/2010 8:16:15 AM)
"Clear honey colored pour with minimal head and some light lacing. Sweet malt aroma with a touch of floral and honeysuckle then some slight hops. Taste is initially sweet then followed by the floral-type earthiness and a nice touch of citrus hops bitter. "

[5] Review by dogfoodman from Redwood Valley, CA, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/6/2010 6:13:36 PM)
"Pours a bright golden color with strong clarity, short lived head, also has a nice crisp carbonation that goes well with this style of brew. Flavor is a complex range starting with some sweetness, ranging through a fairly intense malt and ending with a pleasant hop after flavor. Another quality offering from Sierra Nevada!"
