Kulmbacher Mönchshof Bockbier

Brewed by Kulmbacher Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Dunkler Bock
Kulmbach, Germany

A hazy dark orange beer with a huge brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, yeast, and caramel. The flavor is very sweet with notes of caramel - slightly burnt, malt, yeast, and prunes, the finish is somewhat roasted. The mouthfeel is a little flat.

(Bottle 50 cl) Dark, deep amber-colour with a tint of red - small head. Very malty nose and pronounced roasted malt flavours. Highly carbonated. Very discreet sweetness, actually more dry than sweet. Rather pleasant but lacks a bit of character and finesse to be excellent. Actually I miss some sweetness here. 260505
