Dithmarscher Urbock
Dithmarscher Urbock is the autumn counterpart to the Maibock, sold each year for the colder months. It shares the spring bock's 16.5 °P and 6.8 %, but differs in colour and character: it pours a deep reddish brown under a fine head. The nose is spicy and hoppy with caramel; the palate is malty and full, with toffee and bread crust, and a long, finely bitter hop note runs through the finish while the overall bitterness stays mild.
