Bottle, as Holmegaard Bock.
[thank you, myrup]
Pours deep brownish red with a big, frothy off-white head with a yellow hue. Aroma is mildly malty, light caramel, some prunes and very light chocolate. Light mouthfeel, a bit thin. Flavour is okay, quite typical bock character. Light toffee, caramel and a bit of chocolate. Quite a nice beer.

Jun 12, 2008 Bottled as Holmegaard Bock. An amber beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma is sweet malty with strong notes of caramel. The flavor is very sweet with notes of caramel and malt as well as strong notes of pumpernickle bread, leading to a dry and slightly bitter finish.
