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.

From first sight, I knew it would not be love. Beers in a can always disappoint, no matter how many times I try to turn them into shining knights of armor. They taste of cold metal, give me a slow-dripping buzz, and then leave me the next morning with a headache and low self-esteem. This one was even more deceiving…”Just gimme a chance, baby,” it whispered, hot and seductive in my ear. “I’m honey-coated. You like honey, don’t you, baby…”
Never again, Gluek. I’m over you. This was one one-night-stand I won’t want to remember on those long lonely sober nights.
