Commercial Description:
Bottle conditioned.
Brewed under direction of Hildegard van Ostaden, formerly at Van Steenberge, now at Koningshoeven - La Trappe brewery.
With its rich foam, hoppy flavour and fine bitterness, Urthel Vlaemse Bock is a special ale with a high drinkability for lovers of the authentic Flemish brewing art. Vlaemse Bock as originally brewed for the winter, but is now available in 33 cl. (330 ml./ 11.2 FL.OZ.), 75 cl. (750 ml./1 PT. 9.4 FL. OZ.) and kegs the whole year. You can only buy Urthel Vlaemse Bock in the United States. This heart-warming dubbel of 7.5% of alcohol, traditionally top fermented and bottle conditioned flamey dark ale has a tastefully rich, malty, slightly sweet flavour. Vlaemse Bock’s very fine distinctive bitterness makes you forget the long cold winter.

Ruby Red with a great aroma. Flavor is very flowery but also has the bocklike smoothness.

12 oz bottle (marked as a Vlaemse Bock) served in a clear pint glass. Poured a muddy, deep brown with 5 fingers of thick, slowly dissipating, wet head. Nose is malts, earth, barley, cellar, and light caramel. Taste is very similar, but there is a lingering must on the pallet. This is a very delicious brew. It seems the more Bocks that I have, the more I realize just how much I enjoy this beer style.

Tallahassee, Fl. - Liquor Loft - 330 ml bottle - pours a dark brown with a thick fluffy off-white head. Sweet, nutty aroma. Flavor has hints of chocolate, some nuts, a bit of toffee and a back end of bitter coffee. Good overall roasted flavor with a thick mouthfeel. Above average.

Poured a really dirty brown, like sewer water, but a beautiful 2-finger head with fine lacing. Promising aroma of caramel, roasted apricot, burnt brown sugar. An intriguing sour and bitter flavor mixes in with the rich malts and pitted fruit. A fun twist on the dubbel style. Curious about aging?
