Allgäuer St. Magnus Heller Bock

Brewed by Allgäuer Brauhaus (Oetker Group)
Style: Heller Bock
Kempten, Germany

When poured, this beer had an average sized white head with fine-small sized bubbles that mostly diminished. The body was hazy with very little carbonation and a pale yellow hue. The nose was malty, hoppy and some fruit notes. It had a bitter taste to it with a tingly, smooth, thin-watery texture along with a burning sensation in my stomach. This beer was light bodied with sparse lacing.

This brew poured a large head of finely sized white colored mostly diminishing bubbles that left behind a poor lacing and a softly carbonated straw yellow colored body. The aroma is sweetly malted with perhaps some fruity and wheat elements to it. The mouthfeel is very smooth from start to finish. The flavor is sweetly malted with notes of bread and honey.

Brown, large light head. The nose is very wheaty and the flavor followed with being very bready, but not in a good way, and bad aftertaste. Overall, not bad

Well, I can't say too much good about this one. This really lacked much in terms of flavor and nose, but seemed to have an annoying aftertaste that wasn't too pleasant.

Another brew with a cloudy straw golden color.Small white head that faded fast but left a very slight lacing.Nice aroma malty sweet with hints of fruit mild hops and bubble gum mainly juicy Fruit.mild malt taste with a slight lemon flavor and mild hop presence.Pretty decent so far and the alcohol seems to stay some what hidden.The after taste is malty mildly sweet with a fruity presence and mild hops and as far as the alcohol it is merely felt as a warm feeling when going down the gullet.the feel is mild,just slightly being better then watery.Not bad at all IMO i think a little under rated maybe some recieved bad bottles,but the bottle i have was decent fresh and well worth getting.I would enjoy having a few more of these around for later trials.

Bready pilsner hop,alcohol aroma.Hazy dark blond appearance.Sweet thick syrupy bread dough flavor with mild hops and some alcohol.Drinkable as long as its served cold.

Decent fruit nice medium of the road bock. Sort of thin. Tasted kinda old in my bottle. Decent aroma, flavor and taste. Nothing special.

Hazy orange in color and lacking a head this beer looking like muddied water and appeared lighter towards the top. This was one of the better bocks I have consumed to this point. The aroma denoted this difference from a typical bock with malt notes as well as those yeasty-spiciness befitting a german wheat--this combination was present in flavor as well--though the flavor was somewhat less appealing than the aroma. A vodka note came through in aroma after warming, but this does not seem to factor into the flavor until the final sip. One of the better crafted bocks--true to the commercial description--it is "of unusual character" for the style.
