Known as a pale or "blonde" bock, and of German origin, this stye is generally reserved for spring consumption. It's very malty in flavor an aroma, has practically no bitterness. But a small amount of the hop aromas may come through. Full bodied and hearty, this style was inteded to ward off those nipping remnants of winter as the early Germanic gatherers returned to the field to replenish their stores of food. A sweet beer to enjoy while getting ready for the Wisconsin fishing opener.
