Camelthorn Urbock

◎ Appearance

Camelthorn Urbock presents a deep red-amber hue with excellent clarity and a warm, inviting glow in the glass. A dense, off-white head forms on the pour and maintains steady retention, leaving fine lacing along the walls. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated, appropriate for the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent malt sweetness—toasted grain and gentle caramel notes establish the foundation. Dark fruit esters emerge subtly in the background, reminiscent of dried plum and raisin, while a faint toasty warmth rounds out the bouquet. Noble hop character remains restrained, allowing the malt character to dominate.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and full-bodied, with rich malt sweetness unfolding across the palate—layers of toffee and dark fruit develop mid-taste. The 7% alcohol provides warmth without sharp edges, integrating seamlessly into the malty matrix. Bitterness remains low and balanced, never challenging the approachability that defines this Urbock.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length and warming, with residual malt sweetness and gentle alcohol heat lingering on the palate. A slight dryness emerges toward the end, inviting the next sip.
