Week 2 of 52
Gluek Honey Bock
January 7th thru January 13th
Brewer's Description
This special bock beer is handcrafted with the combination of special toasted malts and the finest hops and with a touch of honey is very well balanced. Honey is evident in the aroma, (yet not overpowering), but harmonious with the Bock's malty and bready aromas. The Gluek Honey Bock appearance is a light reddish amber to copper color, bright clarity, off-white persistent head. This bock has a medium/light to medium body, with a gentle creaminess, moderate carbonation, with a smooth moderately crisp finish and has a bit of alcohol warming.

DeRushaJ says An Unfortunate Beer
January 7th, 2008
Am I too picky? Maybe. Maybe not. Either way, Gluek’s Honey Bock is not delicious. At first I thought it tasted like Busch Lite, and so I wondered, “Jason. Is this beer cheaper than Busch Lite? If so, maybe that’s something.”
Of course, there is no circumstance under which I would buy Busch Lite, so it turns out, it’s nothing.
My wife’s review, of course, is polar opposite of mine. She took one taste and said, “Not bad.” I said, “Try another taste.” She said, “Still not bad.”
If Brew52.com causes my marriage to fall apart, so help me God, I will hunt you down and kill you, Rett.
In conclusion, this beer is better than horrible.
