Winter Honey Bock
A forest-honey aroma gives this bock its own note: light amber, unfiltered and bottom-fermented, warming at 6.0 % ABV. It follows the original north German style first brewed in 16th-century Einbeck, with Pilsner, Munich and caramel malt, Cascade and Mosaic hops and forest honey, from a 12.0° Plato wort. A winter beer, poured roughly from October to March.
