I am sampling a cold 16 oz can poured into my .5L mug. Picked up the cans at the brewery last week.
First beer of the 2021 Bock Tasting event!
the beer pours a clear, deep chestnut to mahogany color with about 1 cm of beige head foaming up and resting on the surface for a bit. This foam eventually fades to nothing, although there are several streams of carbonation rising to the surface of the glass.
Aroma is rich and malty with some toffee and caramel and a definitely nutty character. I dont get any hop character on the nose and in general the aroma is sweeter and pleasant.
First sip reveals a medium body with gentle rolling carbonation and smooth texture. This beer is a little too easy to drink quickly for 7%. Does leave a little stickiness on my lips after each swallow, but otherwise this beer goes down smooth.
Flavor is what the nose advertised to me. I get caramel and toffee, a bit of bready malts and some nutty(walnut) notes on the finish. Again, hops pretty absent and ABV is hidden.
Glad I have 3 more of these cans as the beer is really smooth and enjoyable and is a perfect start to my weekend!
