Stefani Bock

◎ Appearance

Rich golden yellow with excellent clarity and a dense, persistent head that clings to the glass in fine lacing. The carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a refined visual presence befitting a traditional Bock.

◌ Aroma

Noble hop character dominates the nose, with restrained but refined notes from the blend of Magnum, Perle, Saazer, Tettnanger and Spalter Select. Beneath lies a malty foundation with subtle caramel undertones and a soft, clean malt sweetness that suggests careful fermentation.

◐ Taste

Full-bodied and malty on entry, with the brewing rice adding a smooth, elegant texture that prevents heaviness. Noble hop bitterness (25 IBU) integrates seamlessly with the malt backbone, creating a balanced progression. Mid-palate shows sustained richness with caramel notes and a warming alcohol presence that never becomes harsh.

◑ Finish

Medium-long finish with lingering malt sweetness and a gentle hop dryness. The aftertaste remains smooth and slightly caramelized, with no sharp edges or astringency.
