"Inspired by a Buck Beer story in the "Atlanta Beer" book, Brewmaster Crawford Moran is releasing this special Helles Bock, the beer matured in French Oak barrels before being keg conditioned to perfection."
Appearance: Served up a near-clear, golden-orange body with half an inch of froth up top.
Smell: Traditional German malts, lightly sweetish and bready with a hint of orchard fruits, yeast. The French Oak, though subtle, provides some welcome oaky elements.
Taste: Bready, gently toasty malts layered in sweetish golden honey. Fruity accents of apple and pear. Soft, mild yeastiness. Minor hop hint pairs with the little bit of oak tannin shining through. Modest touch of alcohol. Small kiss of vanilla showing on the smooth finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-plus carbonation. Smooth yet crisp!
Overall: Very good stuff, here. I’m saddened it really just came and went in a hurry.
