This dark golden orange colored ale is a lighter form of a traditional bock.
Our May-Bock is lighter in colour and flavour. The aroma is reminiscent of light fruit and spring flowers. The main flavors are honey, citrus, spicy pepper, and fruit.
It is a delicately balanced beer between a strong bitterness and a honey backbone.
It is initially quite bitter but that dies off somewhat as a sweet, spicy note takes over. The touch of extra alcohol content provides this beer with some extra body.

On tap at Clocktower on Clarence. From notes.
A - Poured a copper colour with strong carbonation, a film of white head gone to a ring quite fast. No lacing. Bright.
S - A bit hoppy, earthy and fruity. Quite malt forward but has a few other elements that make it a little interesting.
T - Good fruity malt character. Sweet. Not overly complex. Some caramel is there and it's a bit earthy as well. Malt backbone is strong and works well. Fairly sweet.
M - Mild bitter finish after a medium body with good carbonation.
O/D - Worth a shot. One of the better Clocktower beers. Definately a good patio beer. Nothing special, but a good choice from these guys.
