After a few years tasted again, and for me one of the best dutch bockbeers there is. Classic ruby/brown color, aroma’s of fruits and grainy malts, slightly toasted. Taste is sililar to the smell, aftertaste is perfection in sweetness and toasted bitters.

Sep 28, 2006 Bottle at Heffer, A’dam. This is smooth bock, chocolate/caramel taste. It has a really strong, wicked aftertaste. My man Arne hooked me up with a remaining bottle of it.

Aug 8, 2005 (Bottle 30 cl) Ruby red is what the label claims this beer to be, I’d rather call it mahogany. But pretty it is indeed, with a reddish brown, full, almost greasy head. Very full-bodied, lots of dry caramel with some sweet notes. Some bitterness for balance which succeeds completely making this a very well crafted and harmonious Bock. A beer of very high quality. 080903

Tasted this beer on the Bockbeer festival in Utrecht, The Netherlands, on draft. A nice beer, but not especially a bock in my opinion. A amber color. There is a nice balance between sweetness (caramel) and bitterness (hops).
