Schwanenbräu Heller Bock
In spring Schwanenbräu serves a second seasonal strong lager, listed by the brewery as a heller Bock for the regional BierWochen in Franconian Switzerland. Brewed from light malt to full strength, it is golden in the glass. At this gravity the malt gives honey and fresh bread on the nose, a rounded, gently sweet middle and a warming finish. The brewery publishes no strength or tasting notes, and outside tasters have left little description of it.
