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.

Kristin says Awww….Crap!

Crap! We just spent $12.99 at South Lyndale and someone else got it for $9.99. Double-crap that it’s total crap! You can taste the honey, and there’s the slightest hint of bitterness when you first taste the beer, but there is zero finish. The finish is…oh…water perhaps? Nasty. We, like Aaron said, would be willing to make the huge and incredibly generous sacrifice of offering the remainder of our 22 beers to whoever would enjoy them. That’s just the kinda folks we are….

I’m tempted to just drive around to ya’ll and stock up for a Super Bowl party

LOL! Come get it! If not, we’ll just keep it at our downstairs bar and offer it to my not-so-beer savvy brother by telling him it’s really good.

I’ll buy you a round at the Blue Nile, where I work, if you drop some off for me some time!
Just can’t bring myself to invest in a 12-pack!
cheers,

Al…why can’t I respond to you!? I’m sorta clueless at this whole thing. Either way…if you are serious…I’m IN! I’d give you a free sixer of the stuff for ONE glass of vino. Let me know!

hey, email me privately at almccarty2003@yahoo.com. If you come sometime when I’m not there, we can work something out. Have the bartender call me or something. But, I’m usually there.
cheers,
