Bock is a strong reddish brown lager with origins in the German town of Einbeck in the 13th century. This beer has certainly stood the test of time. Redoak’s Bock uses a combination of light and dark Munich malts, Noble Hallertau hops and Bavarian lager yeast. Bock’s high alcohol content is balanced with a slight malt sweetness and a moderate hop bitterness.
Beer Ratings and Reviews:
[1] Review by vanderla from Sydney, Australia who has tried this beer many times. (10/19/2006 3:23:47 AM)
"Pours a deep ruddy brown with orange edges, clear & sparkling... with a spongy tan head, leaving a sudsy lace.
Aromas intially reminded me of my fermentor... strong hop volatiles. An almost sour cherry note is there also, with a hint of dark chocolate.
Big complex malty flavour, including a subtle hint of something smoky. Almost pudding-like in fruity richness. Back palate of herbal minty hop.
Body is light/medium though. Alcohol notes are there, and it finishes without cloying, with a medium bitterness persisting."
