Havgassen

◎ Aussehen

Havgassen displays a deep amber to chestnut hue, typical of its bock classification. The beer is clear, allowing light to pass through with good definition. A cream-colored head forms readily and persists with moderate retention and fine lacing around the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with generous malt character—toasted grain and subtle caramel notes dominate. Soft, bread-like sweetness emerges beneath, accompanied by gentle alcohol warmth. Noble hop character is restrained and refined, offering only a whisper of herbal balance without assertiveness.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with pronounced malt sweetness and full body, delivering the characteristic smoothness of a well-crafted bock. Caramel and toffee flavors build in the mid-palate, supported by a gentle, slightly boozy warmth. Bitterness remains low and restrained, allowing sweetness and malt complexity to remain the focus throughout.

◑ Abgang

The finish is smooth and lingering, with residual sweetness and warming alcohol fading gradually. A faint dry note emerges late, leaving a gentle malty aftertaste without harshness.
